What's the difference between a seed and a spore?

Hi! I really need some help with this question.

I'm pretty sure it's not a.

a) spores are monoploid and seeds are diploid
b) only the seed is a reproductive structure
c) spores are formed by mitosis and seeds are formed by meiosis
d) sprorophytes form spores and gametophytes from seeds

All answers greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

No, I'm not positive it's not a. So, are you saying it's a then?
If someone could please explain this question to me, it would be appreciated.
Thanks
