Answer 1

Answer: (D)

It is a non-archegoniate plant.

Cycas is an archegoniate plant, in which female gametophyte contains archegonia. The archegonia are formed from the gametophytic cells lining the archegonial chamber. The number of archegonia formed in a gametophyte is variable among species.

So the correct option is D.
