The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Angiosperms**: Angiosperms are a class of plants known as flowering plants. They are characterized by the presence of flowers and fruits, which contain seeds. This distinguishes them from gymnosperms, which have naked seeds. 2. **Vascular Tissues in Angiosperms**: Angiosperms possess advanced vascular tissues, primarily xylem and phloem. Xylem is responsible for the conduction of water and minerals, and it typically contains vessels, which are specialized structures that enhance this conduction. 3. **Exceptions to the Rule**: While most angiosperms have vessels in their xylem, there are exceptions. Some angiosperms lack these vessels entirely. 4. **Identifying the Exceptions**: The video mentions specific angiosperms that do not have vessels. These include: - Dracaena - Dremis (specifically Dremis Wintory) - Eucalyptus 5. **Evaluating Options**: The question likely provides multiple-choice options. The options include: - A) Mangifera - B) Delania - C) Magnolia - D) Dremis Upon evaluation: - Mangifera, Delania, and Magnolia are all angiosperms that do have vessels. - Dremis is noted as an exception that lacks vessels. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question "Angiosperm lacking vessels is" is **D) Dremis**. ---
