Sexual reproduction in plants occurs through the formation of _____.
Options
A Fruits
B Roots
C Spores
D Gametes
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Sexual reproduction in both plants and animals involves the fusion of male and female gametes (sex cells) to form a zygote. In plants, these gametes are typically produced in specialized reproductive structures, leading to fertilization. Fruits are mature ovaries, roots are vegetative parts, and spores are involved in asexual reproduction in some plants or life cycles, but gametes are central to sexual reproduction.

Hint

Recall the fundamental process of sexual reproduction involving the union of specialized reproductive cells.
