  • In algae, bryophytes, and pteridophytes, for the transfer of male gametes water acts as the medium. 
  • During this transfer, a large number of gametes fail to reach the female gametes. 
  • To fulfill this loss, the number of male gametes produced is several thousand times the number of female gametes.
  • Hence, the correct answer is option 3.
