Options
- AA-4, B-2, C-3, D-1
- BA-4, B-1, C-3, D-2
- CA-2, B-1, C-4, D-3
- DA-3, B-1, C-4, D-2
Correct answer
B. A-4, B-1, C-3, D-2
Step-by-step solution
According to NCERT: - In Equisetum, sporophylls form distinct compact structures called strobili or cones. - Ferns possess large leaves called macrophylls. - Salvinia is a pteridophyte that produces two kinds of spores (macro and micro) and is thus heterosporous. - Selaginella possesses small leaves called microphylls. Therefore, the correct matching is A-4, B-1, C-3, D-2. Answer: A-4, B-1, C-3, D-2
