Question

Name the living fossil of Gymnosperm​

Answer 1

Answer:

The living fossil of Gymnosperm is Cycas and Ginkgo

Explanation:

The gymnosperms are comparatively more ancient than the angiosperms in evolutionary terms. Most of the gymnosperms have now become extinct and the group is presently represented by only 900 living species. The living gymnosperms are widely distributed in the cold climates where snow is the source of water. Cycas and Ginkgo are referred to as living fossils because they have not yet changed over the years while its related members or species have become extinct or fossilised. The living fossil represents a living unchanged example of an extinct group or genera etc.
