Question

question 1
pine trees, redwoods, and junipers belong in which plant group?
a angiosperms
b gymnosperms
c ferns
d all of these.
e bryophytes

Explanation:

• Angiosperms: These are flowering plants. Pine trees, redwoods, and junipers do not have flowers, so they are not angiosperms.
• Gymnosperms: Gymnosperms are plants that have seeds not enclosed in an ovary. Pine trees, redwoods, and junipers are all gymnosperms as their seeds are exposed (e.g., pine cones).
• Ferns: Ferns reproduce via spores, not seeds. So pine trees, redwoods, and junipers (which reproduce via seeds) are not ferns.
• Bryophytes: Bryophytes (like mosses) are non - vascular plants. Pine trees, redwoods, and junipers are vascular plants (they have xylem and phloem), so they are not bryophytes.

Answer:

B. gymnosperms
