The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the type of fertilization found in fruit-bearing plants. Fruit-bearing plants are typically flowering plants, known as angiosperms. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - A) Zooidogamy - B) Isogamy - C) Anisogamy - D) Siphonogamy 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Zooidogamy**: This is a type of fertilization where male gametes swim towards female gametes, which is common in lower plants like algae. This is not applicable to fruit-bearing plants. - **Isogamy**: This refers to a type of sexual reproduction where the male and female gametes are of the same size and shape. This is not typical in flowering plants. - **Anisogamy**: This involves the fusion of male and female gametes that are of different sizes and shapes, like in humans. While this occurs in some organisms, it does not specifically describe the fertilization in flowering plants. - **Siphonogamy**: This is a type of fertilization that involves the formation of pollen tubes for the transfer of male gametes to the female gametes. This process is characteristic of angiosperms (flowering plants). 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the type of fertilization found in fruit-bearing plants (angiosperms) is **siphonogamy**. 5. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is **D) Siphonogamy**. ---
