Question

Which plant genera are examples of organisms with ategmic ovules?

Options

• Cycas, Pinus, and Loranthus

• Loranthus, Olax, Santalum, and Liriosma

• Sunflower, Mustard, Pea, and Cycas

• Olax, Pinus, Mustard, and Liriosma

Answer 1

Loranthus, Olax, Santalum, and Liriosma are proper examples of plants with ategmic ovules. These organisms represent the ategmic ovule type, where the ovule develops without any protective integumentary layers, a condition often associated with parasitic or semi-parasitic flowering plants.
