Solution

The correct option is B Gnetum
According to Richard Y-wettstein (Gnetales-angiosperms theory), Gnetales and angiosperms are closely related to each other, because of morphological similarities in the flowers of Gnetum and pro-angiosperms and thus might have originated from common ancestors.
Hence the correct option is B.
