Turpentine is got from
Correct answer: C. Gymnospermous wood
- A. Angiospermous wood
- B. Bryophytes
- C. Gymnospermous wood
- D. Ferns
Explanation
Gymnosperms are a group of seed plants that includes conifers, such as pines and firs. Coniferous trees produce resin, which is a sticky, viscous substance. Turpentine is a liquid that is distilled from resin. Angiosperms are a group of seed plants that includes flowering plants. Angiosperms do not produce resin, so turpentine cannot be obtained from angiospermous wood. Bryophytes are a group of non-vascular plants that includes mosses and liverworts. Bryophytes do not produce resin, so turpentine cannot be obtained from bryophytes. Ferns are a group of vascular plants. Ferns do not produce resin, so turpentine cannot be obtained from ferns. Therefore, the correct answer is gymnospermous wood.
