Which one of the following is considered important in the development of seed habit?

  1. Heterospory
  2. Haplotonic life cycle
  3. Free-living gametophyte
  4. Dependent sporophyte

Correct answer: Heterospory

Solution

Heterospory is important because it produces microspores and megaspores, a key step toward the evolution of seeds. This separation of sexes and retention of the megaspore/gametophyte in the parent plant supports seed habit.
