Question

Select the most accurate of the following statements: Group of answer choices The vascular bundles of gymnosperms contain xylem only, whereas those of angiosperms contain both xylem and phloem Angiosperms produce specialized shoots bearing modified leaves to attract pollinators and protect gametes All gymnosperms have narrow, needle-like leaves whereas all angiosperms have broad, net-veined leaves Gymnosperm embryos are exposed to the elements, whereas the embryos of angiosperms are packaged with a food source inside a seed coat Gymnosperms have substantially more species than angiosperms

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is - all gymnosperms have narrow, needle-like leaves whereas all the angiosperms have broad, net veined leaves".

Explanation:

Gymnosperm and angiosperm both possess xylem and phloem in their vascular bundles or vascular tissues for the transport of water and nutrients or minerals respectively.

Angiosperm or the flowering plants are the largest groups of all plant groups and more diverse than other even gymnosperms are less diverse and fewer in number in comparison to angiosperm.

All gymnosperms consist of narrow, needle-like leaves and in angiosperms, leaves are broad, net veined.
