Answer:

The right answer is D) Pinus.

Explanation:

• Antheridia and archegonia are most reduced in Pinus.
• Archegonia functions as a site of fusion (ie, fertilization) of male and female gametes  in lower plants.
• An organ which produces and releases male gametes is called as Anteridium.
• Male sex organs are called Antheridia.
• Antheridia has a club-shaped body and stem and produces sperm or male gametes.
• The sex organs of female are called archegonia.
• Archegonia is a flask-shaped female sex organ with well-defined vents and neck.
• The center surrounds the ventral canal cells (VCC) and the egg, and the neck surrounds a variable number of cervical cells (NCC).
• Archegonia and Antheridia do not exist in angiosperms.
