Solution

The correct option is A Both statements 1 and 2 are correct.
Bryophytes are known as 'amphibians of plant kingdom' because they are adapted to land as well as water habitats.
In their vegetative structure, bryophytes have become adapted to land.
But they depend on water for sexual reproduction because the swimming habit is retained by their male gametes, the antherozooids.
So, the correct answer is 'Both statements 1 and 2 are correct'.
