The correct Answer is:
To identify the genus based on the given information, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Analyze the Characteristics We have the following characteristics to consider: - Coralloids roots with blue-green algae (BGA) - Unbranched stem - Lack of ovary wall - Pinnate leaves ### Step 2: Understand Each Characteristic 1. **Coralloids Roots with BGA**: This indicates a symbiotic relationship, often seen in certain plants that have a mutualistic association with blue-green algae. 2. **Unbranched Stem**: This suggests that the plant does not have multiple branches coming off the main stem, which is a feature of some specific plant groups. 3. **Lack of Ovary Wall**: This characteristic is indicative of gymnosperms, where the seeds are not enclosed by an ovary wall (naked seeds). 4. **Pinnate Leaves**: Pinnate leaves are typically needle-like and are characteristic of certain gymnosperms, often adapted to reduce transpiration. ### Step 3: Identify the Group Based on the characteristics, particularly the lack of an ovary wall and the presence of pinnate leaves, we can conclude that this plant belongs to the gymnosperms. ### Step 4: Narrow Down to the Genus Among gymnosperms, the presence of coralloids roots with BGA is a specific feature of the genus **Cycas**. Cycas is known for having unbranched stems and pinnate leaves, and it forms a symbiotic relationship with blue-green algae in its coralloid roots. ### Conclusion The genus identified based on the provided characteristics is **Cycas**. ---
