Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Fertilized ovules ripen into seeds.
The seeds are covered by fruits.
A fruit is technically a ripened ovary.
Gymnosperms contain ovules but they lack ovary, therefore, seeds are formed but fruits are not formed.
Angiosperms contain both ovule and ovary and therefore, are seed bearing fruit forming plants.
