Options

A. Absence of pollen tubes
B. Formation of endosperm before fertilization
C. Production of seeds from ovules
D. Lack of xylem tracheids

Answer

B

Explanation

The conifers differ from the endosperm before fertilization. In fact in gymnosperm the endosperm is formed before the fertilization thus it is a haploid tissue while in angiosperms endosperm is formed after fertilization as a result of triple fusion or double fertilization thus it is a triploid tissue. In both conifers and grasses seeds are produced. From ovules xylem tracheids are present in both conifers and grasses. Pollen tubes are also formed in conifers and grasses.
