The characteristic that specifically distinguishes angiosperms from gymnosperms is:
**d. Seed enclosed in ovaries.**
Angiosperms (flowering plants) produce seeds that are enclosed within a fruit, which develops from the ovary after fertilization. In contrast, gymnosperms (such as conifers) have seeds that are not enclosed but instead are usually exposed on cones.
The other options (a, b, c, and e) describe characteristics that can be found in both angiosperms and gymnosperms.
