A	All fern plants make seeds
B	Only flowering plants make seeds
C	Mosses and flowering plants make seeds.
D	Nonflowering plants with cones make seeds.

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Jamun, banyan, apple, coconut and neem are some of the plants that reproduce by means of seeds.

Detailed explanation-2: -Non-flowering plants include mosses, liverworts, hornworts, lycophytes and ferns and reproduce by spores. Some non-flowering plants, called gymnosperms or conifers, still produce seeds.

Detailed explanation-3: -Non-flowering plants include ferns, clubmosses, horsetails, mosses, lichens, and fungi. These are spore-producing plants, a major feature distinguishing them from the seed-producing flowering plants.

Detailed explanation-4: -Flowering plants grow flowers and use seeds to reproduce, or make more plants like them. Nonflowering plants do not grow flowers, and use either seeds or spores, which are very tiny parts of a plant that can be used to reproduce, to grow more plants just like them.
