• A. bryophytes and gymnosperms
• B. gymnosperms and angiosperms
• C. thallophytes and bryophytes
• D. bryophytes and angiosperms

Answer 1

The correct option is A bryophytes and gymnosperms

Pteridophytes are intermediates between bryophytes and gymnosperms. Pteridophytes are advanced when compared to bryophytes by developing vascular tissues and true roots, stems and leaves.
On the other hand, the gymnosperms are more advanced than pteridophytes in many features like not depending on water for fertilisation, seed habit, etc.
