The correct Answer is:
To solve the question "Embryo is present but true vasculature is absent in the group," we need to analyze the options provided: Sinophyta, Tracheophyta, Bryophyta, and Chlorophyta. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Groups**: - **Sinophyta**: This group typically refers to cyanobacteria, which are photosynthetic bacteria and do not have true vascular tissues. - **Tracheophyta**: This group includes vascular plants that have true vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) for the transport of water and nutrients. - **Bryophyta**: This group includes mosses and liverworts, which are non-vascular plants. They have an embryo stage but lack true vascular tissues. - **Chlorophyta**: This group refers to green algae, which can have a variety of structures but do not have true vascular tissues. 2. **Identify the Key Features**: - The question specifies that an embryo is present but true vasculature is absent. - True vasculature refers to the presence of xylem and phloem, which are absent in non-vascular plants. 3. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Sinophyta**: While they lack vascular tissues, they do not have an embryo as defined in the context of plant development. - **Tracheophyta**: They have true vascular tissues and also develop embryos, so they do not fit the criteria. - **Bryophyta**: They have an embryo (the sporophyte generation develops from the zygote) and lack true vascular tissues. - **Chlorophyta**: They may have reproductive structures but do not typically develop an embryo in the same way as Bryophyta. 4. **Conclusion**: - The only group that fits the description of having an embryo but lacking true vascular tissues is **Bryophyta**. Thus, the correct answer is **Bryophyta (Option C)**.
