Selaginella and Salvinia are considered to represent a significant step toward evolution of seed habit because:
1. | Female gametophyte is free and gets dispersed like seeds. |
2. | Female gametophyte lacks archegonia. |
3. | Megaspores possess endosperm and embryo surrounded by seed coat. |
4. | Embryo develops in female gametophyte which is retained on parent sporophyte. |
