- ARoots in some genera have fungal association in the form of mycorrhiza.
- BThe stems are branched.
- CThe male or female cones or strobili are borne on the same tree.
- DAll of the above
Correct answer
D. All of the above
Step-by-step solution
Roots in some genera have fungal association in the form of mycorrhiza (Pinus), while in some others (Cycas) small specialised roots called coralloid roots are associated with N 2 - fixing cyanobacteria. The stems are unbranched (Cycas) or branched (Pinus, Cedrus). The male or female cones or strobili may be borne on the same tree (Pinus).
