Question

The flowering plants are the most numerous group of living plants, with about 260,000 species. Which of the following accounts for this group’s great success? A. embryos that develop within the plant B. water-conducting tissues that allow them to grow tall C. seeds that protect the plant embryo D. flowers and fruit that provide a reproductive advantage

Answer 1

The correct answer is D. flowers and fruit that provide a reproductive advantage.

Angiosperms are flowering plants.  These are most successful plant groups. Angiosperms produce flowers and seeded fruits, which are distinguishing features of the angiosperms. several colors of flowers attract agents for pollination that help to increase diversity in angiosperms. Enclosed seed in angiosperms protect them from dessication and for better dispersal.
