Question

Match the following groups of kingdom Plantae with their examples.
$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Column A}& \text{Column B}\\ \left(a\right)\text{Bryophyta}& \left(i\right)\text{Apple}\\ \left(b\right)\text{Angiosperm}& \left(ii\right)\text{Fern}\\ \left(c\right)\text{Pteridophyta}& \left(iii\right)\text{Pine}\\ \left(d\right)\text{Gymnosperm}& \left(iv\right)Funaria\end{array}$

• A. a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
• B. a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
• C. a-iv, b-i, c-ii, d-iii
• D. a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i

Answer 1

The correct option is C a-iv, b-i, c-ii, d-iii

$\bullet$ Bryophytes possess false roots and leaves and they do not contain specialised vascular tissues.
E.g., Funaria, mosses, etc.

$\bullet$ Pteridophytes possess true roots and leaves but do not produce flowers and seeds. Vascular tissues are present in these plants.
E.g., Pteris, Dryopteris, ferns, etc.

$\bullet$ Gymnosperms are naked seeded plants as their seeds are not enclosed in fruits.
E.g., Cycas, Pinus, etc.

$\bullet$ Angiosperms are flower and seed bearing plants. The seeds are enclosed within the fruits.
E.g., Apple, peanut, etc.
