Where is location of antheridium on fern gametophyte?
It is located on the underside of the fern gametophyte.
What is the dominant stage of the fern life cycle what is the relationship of the fern gametophyte and sporophyte?
in the life cycle of a fern, the dominant and recognizable stage is the diploid sporophyte. the the younger sporophyte grows from the gametophyte.
What is the name to the gametophype generation in fern?
Gametophyte generation of fern is called prothallus.
How are the fern sporophyte and gametophyte stage the same?
In reference to the sporophyte and gametophyte, are the stages of the plant's life cycle thus being the same.
How does the sporophyte generation of a plant differ from a gametophyte generation?
In most plants, the sporophyte generation is dominant. In fern, for example, the fern itself is the sporophyte. This organism produces spores that fall to the substrate below and grow into a separate organism called a gametophyte. The gametophyte produces sperm and eggs in order to produce a new sporophyte which grows out of the gametophyte's body, destroying it. It is important to note that the gametophyte is haploid and the sporophyte is dploid.
Is the familiar green fuzzy moss is?
actually no not a frond a frond is the leaf of a fern. The correct answer would be gametophyte
What is the heart shaped gametophyte called?
Fern spores grow into "Prothallia". The singular is "Prothallium".
What is a type of sexual reproduction in plants?
Some plants reproduce sexually through spores. As in the fern life cycle. Spores generally contain either an egg or sperm. When these spores reach the gametophyte of other ferns then they can combine to make a fertilized gametophyte which will grow into an adult fern.

What stage of the fern life cycle is dominant?
The diploid sporophyte stage of the fern cycle is dominant. In seed plants, the opposite is true; the haploid gametophyte stage is dominant for these.
Is a snapdragon monoecious or dioecious?
The gametophyte of the fern is monoecious since both the male and female sexual parts (termed antheridia and archegonia) are both on the same plant. I don't think there are any extant dioecious ferns.
What does the gametophyte stage of a moss or fern life cycle produce?
Gametes in the sex organs
