Question

The division of plants into gymnosperms and angiosperms terminates with the suffix 'sperm'. It means that both produce

• A. Motile sperms
• B. Nonmotile sperms
• C. Ovules and seeds
• D. Sporophylls

Answer 1

The correct option is C Ovules and seeds

Gymnosperms (Gr. gymno =naked; sperma = seed) and Angiosperms (Gr. angeion = case; sperma = seed) both produce seeds. Ovules are the structures which form seeds after fertilization.

Both produce ovules and seeds. Whereas the main difference is that, gymnosperms produce naked seeds while in angiosperms, the seeds are covered.

So, the correct answer is 'Ovules and seeds'
