Which of the following reproduce by producing spores?
A. Jasmines
B. Roses
C. Ferns
D. Pomegranate

Explanation

Solution

A spore is a reproductive structure that, under adverse conditions, is adapted for dispersal and survival for prolonged periods of time. The spores are part of several plants, algae, fungi, and some protozoans' life cycles.

Complete answer:
Ferns use the mode of vegetative reproduction. This takes place through fragmenting rhizomes, adventitious buds, etc. The spores are produced in sporangia. On the ventral floor, sporangia are present. Sporangia are available in the specialised structures called sporocarps, e.g., in Azolla, Salvinia and Marsilea. Sporophylls have two types of sporangia: mega and microsporangia. Both are equally dispersed or are aggregated into compact cones, known as a stem, which is present on the apex of the stem. Sporangia occur in a cluster known as sori, which is called sporophylls. They have well-developed inside vein constructions and are "vascular plants" which promote the flow of water and nutrients. If compared to the different vascular plants, ferns reproduce from spores and the so-called intermediate plant stage, the flowering plants, and conifers, which are adult vegetation rising straight away from the seed. The majority of ferns are leafy and cultivate in humid areas and woodland canopies.
Ferns reproduce themselves from spores and jasmine, pomegranates, and roses, as such vascular plant life reproduces through seeds.
Therefore, the correct response is choice C.

Note: Ferns are pteridophytes. Pteridophytes have vascular vegetation in plants. Two types of spores are fashioned – homosporous and heterosporous. Their corporations are four: Psilopsida, Lycopsida, Sphenopsida, and Filicopsida.
