What type of plant life cycle alternates between a haploid gametophyte and a diploid sporophyte?
Correct Answer: Bryophytes and Pteridophytes
- Step 1: Understand that plants have different stages in their life cycle.
- Step 2: Learn that one stage is called the gametophyte, which is haploid (has one set of chromosomes).
- Step 3: Learn that the other stage is called the sporophyte, which is diploid (has two sets of chromosomes).
- Step 4: Know that the life cycle of these plants alternates between the gametophyte and sporophyte stages.
- Step 5: Recognize that this process is called alternation of generations.
