C. Incorrect – the coralloid roots of Cycas are associated with N2-fixing cyanobacteria; VAM (mycorrhiza) is found in the roots of Pinus.

D. Correct – the main plant body of a bryophyte is the haploid gametophyte, while in pteridophytes it is the diploid sporophyte.

E. Correct – as per NCERT, in gymnosperms the male and female gametophytes remain within the sporangia retained on the sporophytes.
