Pinus seeds cannot germinate and establish without fungal association. This is because:
1. its seeds contain inhibitors that prevent germination.
2. its embryo is immature.
3. it has an obligate association with mycorrhizae.
4. it has a very hard seed coat.

3. | Mosses | 4. | Pteridophytes |

In gymnosperms, the pollen chamber represents:
1. | a cell in the pollen grain in which the sperms are formed |
2. | a cavity in the ovule in which pollen grains are stored after pollination |
3. | an opening in the megagametophyte through which the pollen tube approaches the egg |
4. | the microsporangium in which pollen grain develop |
