Answer: The correct answer is B) Endocytosis.

Endocytosis can be defined as the uptake of large molecules by a cell that requires energy of the cell. Therefore, it is an energy consuming process.

Example- Ingestion of bacteria by macrophages is an energy consumig process and described under endocytosis.

On the other hand, osmosis ( diffusion of water), diffusion, and facilitated diffusion ( requiring carrier proteins) are all passive phenomenon that do not require energy.

providing examples explain how sexual reproduction in plants has evolved to become less dependent on water
Mars2501 [29]

The Gymnosperms and Angiosperms are groups of plants with seed, which means that they don’ t necessary acquire water for fertilization. These groups have made adaptations for sexual reproduction on dry land.

1) Gymnosperms (plants with the seeds are not enclosed in an ovary) have developed over the course of its evolution, structures that solved the main limitations present in the Pteridophytes in relation to sexual reproduction, in the terrestrial environment. The main changes that happened as an evolutionary adaptation to dry land are those on the seeds and pollen. The advantages of the seeds are: the storage tissue which sustains growth and a protective coat of the seeds. Seed is enveloped with the layers of hardened tissue which prevents desiccation. This is what frees reproduction from the need for a constant supply of water. <span>The sperm (male gamete) of gymnosperms</span> is enclosed in a pollen grain. Thi structure is protected from desiccation and can reach the female organs without dependence on water. Gymnosperms also developed structures called cupules to enclose and protect the ovule (the female gametophyte) which will develop into a seed upon fertilization.

 

2) Angiosperms are a group of plants which protect their seeds within an ovary called a fruit. Angiosperms have special evolutionary adaptations. For example, they produce their gametes in separate organs, usually in a flower, so the fertilization and embryo development takes place inside an anatomical structure. That provides a stable system of sexual reproduction largely sheltered from environmental fluctuations like water need.
