Question

Sporangia of eusporangiate ferns

• A. Possess a single layer of wall cells
• B. Produce very few spores
• C. Originate from a group of initial cells
• D. Dehiscence at the region of a well defined stomium

Answer 1

The correct option is C Originate from a group of initial cells

Eusporangiate ferns are vascular spore plants, whose sporangia arise from several epidermal cells and not from a single cell as in leptosporangiate ferns. Typically these ferns have reduced root systems and sporangia, that produce large amounts or spores

Example, Psilotum, Equisetum etc

So, the correct answer is 'Originate from a group of initial cells'
