D Correct answer
Explanation

Angiosperms are so named because the seeds are enclosed within a flower, which has male and female reproductive structures. Gymnosperms are plants in which the ovules are not enclosed by any ovary wall and remain exposed or naked both before and after fertilisation. Adhatoda is an angiosperm, but cedrus belongs to gymnosperm.
