Select the mismatch:

  1. Cycas – Dioecious
  2. Salvinia – Heterosporous
  3. Equisetum – Homosporous
  4. Pinus – Dioecious

Correct answer: Pinus – Dioecious

Solution

Pinus is generally monoecious, meaning male and female cones are borne on the same plant, so calling it dioecious is incorrect. The other pairings are correct: Cycas is dioecious, Salvinia is heterosporous, and Equisetum is homosporous.
