In vascular plants, the principal generation phase is the sporophyte, which is usually diploid with two sets of chromosomes per cell. By contrast, the principal generation phase in non-vascular plants is usually the gametophyte, which is haploid with one set of chromosomes per cell.

What is the difference between bryophytes and tracheophytes?
The main difference between bryophytes and tracheophytes is that bryophytes are non-vascular plants whereas tracheophytes are vascular plants. Both of them have heteromorphic alternation of generation that means the two generations gametophytes and sporophytes are morphologically as well as cytologically different. in bryophytes gametophyte generation is more prominent in which male and female gametes fuse to each other to form zygote which develops into well protected embryo, while in tracheophytes, sporophytes generation is more dominant and gametophyte generation is very small and inconspicuous.
Are bryophytes the simplest group of plant?
Bryophytes are the simplest land plants because they lack vascular tissues and are usually 1 to 2 cm in height and they need water for their reproductioin and they live in damp places and in them gametophyte generation is dominant.
What generation is dominant in moss?
The Sporophyte is the dominant generation of the club moss, which is a Lycopodium. Also, club mosses are vascular plants, and the diploid generation is dominant for vascular plants.
Trait that shows up generation after generation?
DOMINANT-K-
A trait that appears or is expressed in the f1 generation is what?
the dominant trait
Is the gametophyte the dominant generation?
in bryophytes the sporophytes is diploid(2n) while the gametophyte in bryophytes is haploid(n).In bryophytes the sporophytes are totally or partially dependent on gametophytes while gametophytes are the dominant generation in bryophytes.Male sporophytes produce male spores and that of female produce megaspores of female spores while male gametophytes produce male gametes while female gametophytes produce female gametes

Are bryophytes the only plants having a dominant gametophyte stage in their lifecycle?
Plato: True
What generation is dominant in moss?
The Sporophyte is the dominant generation of the club moss, which is a Lycopodium. Also, club mosses are vascular plants, and the diploid generation is dominant for vascular plants.
What does it mean when a gametophyte is dominant over a dependent sporophyte?
The main plant body is gametophytic as in case of Bryophytes
Dominant sporophyte of angiosperms?
No. Only in bryophytes (mosses, hornworts, and liverworts) is the gametophyte dominant. In advanced plants, the sporophyte is dominant. The gametophyte in angiosperms is a tiny part buried w/in the flower. Hope this helps.
Trait that shows up generation after generation?
DOMINANT-K-
What plants have a dominant gametophyte?
The sporophyte generation is dominant in ferns.
Which generation is dominate in seedless vascular plants?
Sporophyte is the dominant generation.
The generation of a tulip is the dominant phase of its life cycle?
sporophyte generation
What is the dominant phase of the bryophyte life cycle?
Bryophytes or Moss plants life cycle goes with two stages. The two stages are the haploid (gametophyte) and the diploid (sporophyte) which is the dominant stage.
