Step-by-step solution
Unlike the gymnosperms where the ovules are naked, in the angiosperms or flowering plants, the pollen grains and ovules are developed in specialized structures called flowers. In angiosperms, the seeds are enclosed in fruits. The angiosperms are an exceptionally large group of plants occurring in a wide range of habitats. They range in size from the smallest Wolffia to tall trees of Eucalyptus (over 100 meters). They provide us with food, fodder, fuel, medicines and several other commercially important products. Th
