None of these answers are correct
The evolution of fruit that allows wind, water and animal dispersal
The evolution of spores with sporopollenin
The evolution of double fertilization
The evolution of pollinator mutualisms
Explanation / Answer
Answer is "evolution of pollinator mutualisms"
Although the second option seems to be correct but strictly speaking, it is not correct in this context. Wind, water and animal dispersal of seeds helps the plants to extend their habitat but not diversity. Whereas, pollinator mutualisms help the plant to achieve geentic diversity as they are cross pollinated with the different plants of same species.
