Which of the following is NOT an example of Pteridophyta?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
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.
