Solution

The correct option is C angiosperms and gymnosperms
In angiosperms and gymnosperms, pollen grains are produced as the male gametes. The transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma is called pollination. Pollen is made in angiosperms and gymnosperms. In gymnosperms, pollen is transferred from the male cone to the female cone. So, pollination occurs only in gymnosperms and angiosperms.


In bryophytes, antherozoids and eggs are produced as male and female gametes respectively.

In pteridophytes, antheridium and archegonium produce the male and female gametes respectively.

In fungi, sexual reproduction takes place with the help of various types of spores (oospores, zygospores, ascospores, basidiospores) produced by distinct structures called fruiting bodies.
