The correct Answer is:
To determine the group in which to place a plant with ovules completely enclosed by the ovary wall, well-developed flowers, and fruit, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Plant Classification**: The plant kingdom is broadly divided into two main categories: Cryptogams and Phanerogams. - **Cryptogams**: These are non-flowering plants, which include ferns, mosses, and algae. - **Phanerogams**: These are flowering plants, which include gymnosperms and angiosperms. 2. **Identify the Characteristics of the Plant**: The plant in question has: - Ovules completely enclosed by the ovary wall. - Well-developed flowers. - Presence of fruit. 3. **Differentiate Between Gymnosperms and Angiosperms**: - **Gymnosperms**: These are non-flowering plants that produce naked seeds (seeds not enclosed by an ovary). - **Angiosperms**: These are flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed within a fruit. They have well-developed flowers and fruits. 4. **Conclusion**: Since the plant has ovules that are completely enclosed by the ovary wall, well-developed flowers, and fruit, it fits the characteristics of angiosperms. ### Final Answer: The plant should be placed in the group of **Angiosperms**. ---
