Accepted Answer

About 360 million years ago

Question 4

Which structure in seed plants is responsible for protecting the embryo and aiding in its dispersal?

Accepted Answer

Seed coat (integument)

Question 5

In gymnosperms, the ovule is exposed on the surface of which structure?

Accepted Answer

Ovuliferous scale

Question 6

Which of the following correctly matches the plant group with its example?

Accepted Answer

Ginkgophyta – Ginkgo biloba

Question 7

What is the function of the micropyle in seed plants?

Accepted Answer

It is the site where pollen enters the ovule for fertilization.

Question 8

Which of the following is a unique feature of angiosperms compared to gymnosperms?

Accepted Answer

Double fertilization resulting in the formation of endosperm

Question 9

A botanist discovers a plant with dichotomous leaves and separate male and female cones. Which phylum does this plant most likely belong to?

Accepted Answer

Question 11

Which of the following is TRUE regarding the vascular tissue in seed plants?

Accepted Answer

Gymnosperms typically have tracheids, while angiosperms have both tracheids and vessel elements.

Question 12

Which process in angiosperms involves the fusion of one sperm with the egg and another sperm with two polar nuclei?

Accepted Answer

Double fertilization

Accepted Answer

Ginkgo biloba

Question 18

Which of the following is NOT a function of the seed in seed plants?
