Solution

The correct option is A Some Liverworts
Gemmae are green, multicellular, asexual buds that develop in small receptacles called gemma cups. They are located on the thalli of some liverworts like Marchantia. The gemmae become detached from the parent body and germinate to form new individuals.

Gemmae are not found in mosses, pteridophytes and gymnosperms.
