Retaining the zygote on the living gametophyte of land plants . Retaining the zygote on the living gametophyte of land plants . helps in dispersal of the zygote allows it to be nourished by the parent plant evolved concurrently with pollen protects the zygote from herbivores

Explanation:

Retaining the zygote on the living gametophyte of land plants  allows it to be nourished by the parent plant

Zygote is the product of fertilization of two gametes. It is the first cell of an organism that divides and redivides to give rise to an entire organism. Thus, protection and nourishment of the zygote becomes the prime aim of the parent organisms.

The land plants usually retain their zygote within the female gametophyte, so that the zygote remains protected and can be nourished till it reaches a suitable condition to germinate.

answer: angiosperms

dicots

angiosperms are highly evolved plants, they produce seeds which are enclosed within in a carple. these are the largest group of plants on earth. they include trees, shrubs, herbs and small flowering plants. angiosperms exhibit a flowering stage in their life cycle. the flower serves the function of reproduction and fruit formation in majority of angiosperms. dicot is the term used to describe flowering plants that have two seed leaves. dicots are plants which develop seeds which split into two parts called cotyledons. each cotyledon contains one embryo.

here, a small purple flower development indicates that the plant belongs to angiosperms and having two embryonic leaves indicates it belongs to dicots.
