The correct answer is option 1: Pteridophyta.

Pteridophyta is a plant group that includes ferns, horsetails, and club mosses. These plants reproduce through spores instead of seeds. They have vascular tissues, including xylem and phloem, which allow them to transport water and nutrients throughout the plant. Pteridophytes are typically found in damp and shady environments, such as forests and wetlands.

Bryophytes, on the other hand, are a different plant group that includes mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Unlike Pteridophyta, bryophytes do not have vascular tissues and cannot transport water and nutrients as efficiently. They also reproduce through spores and are commonly found in moist habitats.

Gymnosperms (option 3) and angiosperms (option 4) are two other plant groups. Gymnosperms include conifers, cycads, and ginkgos, while angiosperms include flowering plants. Both gymnosperms and angiosperms reproduce through seeds, with gymnosperms having naked seeds and angiosperms having seeds enclosed within fruits.

Therefore, Marsika, Fern, and Horse-tail belong
