  2. Chara
  3. Adiantum

Answer

Solution

As per NCERT, Marchantia is dioecious; its archegonia are borne on special stalked branches called archegoniophores (antheridia on antheridiophores).

∵ Chara bears oogonium and globule, while Funaria and Adiantum bear their sex organs directly on the gametophyte (no stalked receptacles).
