Solution

The correct option is C Gnetales
The Gnetophyta are a small group of vascular seed plants belonging to the phylum Gnetophyta.
The Gnetophyta include only three genera, Ephedra, Gnetum, and Welwitschia, each of which belongs to a separate family, in a single order, called as the Gnetales.
The gnetophytes have a number of features in common with the flowering plants (phylum Anthophyta, the angiosperms), which shows that Gnetales are more advanced in gymnosperms.
