Solution

The correct option is A Mosses
Protonema is a branched filamentous structure seen in bryophytes. They are formed by spore-germination. In mosses, the stage leads to hormone accumulation leading to the growth of newly formed cells. The protonema gives rise to small buds that form the gametophores. Thus the correct answer is option B.
