Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
The female sex organ of the bryophytes is a remarkable structure.
It appears for the first time in the liverworts and mosses and continues in the pteridophytes.
Archegonium is absent in thallophytes (algae and fungi).
Sex organs in them produce male gametes and female gametes.
