Vedclass · Answer

(B) In the plant kingdom,the life cycle involves an alternation of generations between a haploid gametophyte and a diploid sporophyte. In $Algae$ and $Fungi$,the dominant phase is haploid $(n)$. In $Mosses$ (Bryophytes),the gametophyte is the dominant,independent,and photosynthetic phase. In $Ferns$ (Pteridophytes),the sporophyte is the dominant,independent,and photosynthetic phase,which is diploid $(2n)$. Therefore,the diploid stage is dominant in $Ferns$.

In which of the following plants is the diploid stage generally dominant?
