Explanation

Double fertilization is a unique reproductive feature found exclusively in angiosperms (flowering plants). This process involves one sperm fertilizing the egg to form a zygote, while the other sperm fuses with two polar nuclei to create the endosperm, which nourishes the developing embryo. Ferns, whisk ferns, gymnosperms, and bryophytes do not exhibit this fertilization mechanism.
