Solution

The correct option is B
Spore formation

Ferns reproduce by producing spores. Spores are structures with tough, protective coating. This helps in the survival of spores in harsh conditions. The spores in ferns are produced by bodies called sori. When the spores find favourable conditons, they grow into a new plant.
