Angiosperms differ from gymnosperms in that:
AAngiosperms have no pollen grains
BAngiosperms lack vascular tissue
CPollen grains and ovules in angiosperms develop in specialised flowers; seeds are ENCLOSED in FRUITS (whereas gymnosperm seeds are naked)
DAngiosperms are heterosporous; gymnosperms are homosporous
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Pollen grains and ovules in angiosperms develop in specialised flowers; seeds are ENCLOSED in FRUITS (whereas gymnosperm seeds are naked)
Angiosperms have flowers (housing pollen + ovules) and seeds enclosed in fruits. Gymnosperms have naked seeds, no flowers, no fruits. Both are heterosporous, both have vascular tissue, both have pollen — only flower/fruit enclosure separates them.
