In gymnosperms the ovules are
ANot enclosed by any ovary wall, hence naked
BAlways borne on the underside of leaves
CReplaced by spores and never form seeds
DEnclosed within a fully developed ovary
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Not enclosed by any ovary wall, hence naked
Gymnos = naked; sperma = seed.
Ovules are exposed, not enclosed in an ovary.
After fertilisation the seeds remain uncovered, distinguishing gymnosperms from angiosperms.
