Which of the following describes the 'Seed Habit'?

  1. The dispersal of spores via water currents to new sites
  2. The retention of the megaspore within the megasporangium
  3. The release of megaspores into the surrounding external environment
  4. The evolutionary transition from diploid to haploid generation dominance
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: The retention of the megaspore within the megasporangium

A defining feature of the seed habit is that the megaspore is never released from the parent plant. Instead, it germinates within the megasporangium to produce the female gametophyte in situ.
