Question:

Which of the following is NOT an example of Pteridophyta?

Options:

Funaria

Selaginella

Equisetum

Pteris

Correct Answer:

Funaria

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1)- Funaria

Funaria is NOT an example of Pteridophyta.

Explanation:

  • Pteridophyta refers to the vascular plants that reproduce and disperse via spores. Examples of Pteridophytes include ferns, horsetails, and club mosses.
  • Funaria, on the other hand, is a genus of mosses. Mosses belong to a different group of plants called Bryophyta, which are non-vascular plants and reproduce by spores as well but are distinct from Pteridophytes.

So, among the options provided, Funaria is not an example of Pteridophyta.
