Correct answer: A A–1, B–2

A – Dicotyledon: The plant shows broad leaves with reticulate venation, presence of branching, and flowers with petals in multiples of 5 – all typical features of dicots. B – Monocotyledon: The plant has narrow, strap-like leaves with parallel venation and unbranched growth – diagnostic of monocots. Gymnosperms and pteridophytes were included to mislead; neither plant in the images shows cones (gymnosperms) or spore-producing fronds (pteridophytes).
