Ascientist has discovered a new plant species in the amazon rainforest. she tells her fellow scientists that the plant she has found produces a cone. what might they say about how this plant is different from an angiosperm?

its seeds have one or two cotyledons.

its stems' vascular bundles are scattered.

it does not depend on insect pollination.

it is a seeded vascular plant

A scientist has discovered a new plant species in the Amazon rainforest. She tells her fellow scientists that the plant she has found produces a cone. This plant differs from an organism that it does not depend on insect pollination.

They do not differ in seeds having number of cotyledons, their stems vascular bundles are scattered and they are seeded vascular plants. It means that the plant which produces a cone does not depend on insect pollination, they reproduce or fertilize by cone which consists of reproductive structures.

Otherwise, angiosperm seeds spread through pollination by insects and then they fertilize where it is put by insects which is the only difference it has.

The correct answer is option C, It does not depend on insect pollination

Reason -

The species of plant specified in this question is the gymnosperm as it produces cone. Now the gymnosperms species of plant are considered as species  that do not produce flower and fruits and also they have naked seeds which are very well exposed and thus do not need any mode of pollination. The seeds of such plants are usually found on the cones and short talks.
