Providing examples explain how sexual reproduction in plants has evolved to become less dependent on water

1) Gymnosperms have developed over the course of its evolution, structures that solved the main limitations present in the Pteridophytes in relation to sexual reproduction, in the terrestrial environment.

2) The organisms that have adapted fully to the terrestrial environment feature adaptations in the body to retain water, thus avoiding dehydration.

3) about Pteridophytes:Vascular tissue: water and minerals and organic
 material.
Vascular tissue: increasing efficiency in the transport of water and mineral salts with increased plant growth.Dependence on water for fertilization with anterozoides furniture.

hope this helps!
