3. | Gnetales | 4. | Cycads |
Consider the following two statements:
I: | The spread of living pteridophytes is restricted to narrow geographical regions |
II: | They are the first terrestrial plants to possess vascular tissues |
1. Both I and II are correct and II explains I

3. | Pteris | 4. | Lycopodium |
Identify the incorrect statement:
1. | As compared to the bryophytes, pteridophytes have sporophyte as the main plant body |
2. | Pteridophyte sporophyte has well differentiated true roots, stem and leaves |
3. | Selaginella has macrophylls like ferns |
4. | In sporophyte of ferns, leaf-like appendages called sporophylls subtend sporangia |
Consider the following statements:
I: | Pteridophytes are the first terrestrial plants to possess vascular bundles. |
II: | Main plant body in pteridophytes is sporophyte which is differentiated into true stem and leaves. |
