​

Answer 1

Option 1 Ferns,oaks,pines,Hornwort

This question can be solved by only one information given in table Plant A2 produces flowers Flowers are characteristic features of angiosperms As in all other options A2 is given as pine which is gymnosperm hence answer is 1

But if you require complete information then

1.Plant A1 will be pteridophyte as xylem and phloem are present but seeds are not formed

2.A2 will be angiosperm as it has xylem phloem seed and flowers

3.A3 will be gymnosperm as it has xylem phloem and seed but no flower

4.A4 will be bryophyte as it does not have xylem phloem
