alleryHeterospory, the production of two types of spores (microspores and megaspores), is seen in
AAll algae regardless of class
BAll liverwort genera without exception
CMost homosporous true ferns
DSelaginella and Salvinia among pteridophytes
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Selaginella and Salvinia among pteridophytes
Selaginella and Salvinia produce micro- and megaspores.
Most ferns are homosporous.
Heterospory is regarded as a precursor to the seed habit (the gametophyte is retained on the parent sporophyte).
