Question 5 • Biology

Which best explains why angiosperms are the most diverse and successful plant group today?

Answer
A
Water transport and photosynthesis are aided by vascular tissue.
B
Plant growth and increasing size are aided by a new way to distribute nutrients.
C
Reproduction is aided by exposed seeds and wind pollination.
D
Reproduction is aided by flowers, protected seeds, and insect pollinators.

Explanation

Angiosperms reproduce using flowers, and their seeds are enclosed and protected inside fruits. Flowers can attract animal pollinators, such as insects, which helps plants reproduce efficiently. Choice C best explains their success; exposed seeds are a feature of gymnosperms, not angiosperms.
