Question

One feature of pteridophytes which is not found in any other land plants is?

• A. Presence of antheridium
• B. Formation of seeds
• C. Multicellular independent sporophyte and gametophyte
• D. Presence of true roots, stems and leaves

Answer 1

The correct option is C Multicellular independent sporophyte and gametophyte

Pteridophytes are the only plant groups to have an independent gametophyte and sporophyte. Pteridophytes and seed plants have true roots, stems and leaves. Pteridophytes do not produce seeds.

Antheridium is found in other plant groups such as algae and bryophytes too.
