Solution
The correct option is C Pinus
Gametophyte is dependent on the sporophyte in gymnosperms. e.g., Pinus. Gymnosperms are vascular plants that produce seeds in cones. Examples include conifers such as pine and spruce trees. The gymnosperm life cycle has a dominant sporophyte generation. Both gametophytes and the next generation’s new sporophytes develop on the sporophyte parent plant. Marchantia and Polytrichum are bryophytes and Adiantum is a fern.
