Angiosperms or flowering plants include all those plants in which seeds are enclosed in the fruits. An ovule is well developed in angiosperms. Thus option B is the correct answer.

A xylem vessel is a characteristic feature of an angiosperm and help in transportation of water. When it comes to transportation of food, it is the phloem that transports food materials from the leaves to the other parts. Sieve tube elements, companion cells, phloem parenchyma are the different components of the phloem. The sieve tube elements are arranged longitudinally with the companion cells and the pressure gradient in them is maintained by the companion cells

So, the correct answer is 'Angiosperm'

Vessels are present in most of the angiosperms and also in certain lower plants like Gnetum, Marsilea and Selaginella. Tracheids are found in pteridophytes, most of the gymnosperms and a few angiosperms.
Thus, the correct answer is option D.

A. Mistletoe is a common name for obligate hemiparasitic plants of order santalales. For example, Viscum species etc. It grows as tangled stem mass which can be upto 5 feet.

Angiosperms are fruit-bearing plants because angiosperms are vascular seed plants in which the ovule (egg) is fertilized and develops into a seed in an enclosed hollow ovary. The ovary itself is usually enclosed in a flower, which after fertilization turns into fruit.

A. Herbs are plants with short and pliable stems. For example, rice.

Zoster marina, also called as 'seawrack' is a marine angiosperm because it lives in aquatic environments mainly marine in nature. It is rarely exposed to air. it anchors via its rhizomes into the sand bed. But it requires sunlight to grow, thus have long leaves.
