A pine tree is generally a Sporophyte - a multicellular, diploid, spore-producing organism. However, the created spores are haploid, and thus begin the gametophyte phase, in which the microspores (pollen) and megaspores (female receptors), will combine back into a gamete, and begin the sporophyte stage again.

∙ 11y agoa pine tree shows both gametophyte as well as sporophyte generation. , i.e, it shows alternation of generations ( diplohaplontic life cylce) .
the sporophyte is the plant itself. it is diploid and developed from gametes and produces spores.

What structure would you be able to find the female gametophyte of a pine tree?
archegonegiam
Which generation in the life cycle of a conifer represented by a pine tree?
gametophyte as well as sporophyte generation
How the locations of male and female cones in Pinus can ensure the success of pollination?
The male gametophyte of pine develops in cluster at the tip of lower branches of the cones tree. The location of staminate cones ensures the success of pollination by cross fertilization.
How locations of female and male cones in the pinus can ensure the success of pollination?
The male gametophyte of pine develops in cluster at the tip of lower branches of the cones tree. The location of staminate cones ensures the success of pollination by cross fertilization.
What is one entire male gametophyte of a gymnosperm?
The male gametophyte of a gymnosperm is a pollen grain
What cell does the gametophyte generation 1n begin in each pine cone?
In the female pine cone, the gametophyte generation (1N) begins in the megasporangium. For males, it begins in the microsporangium.
Is the female pine cone a sporophyte?
A pine tree is generally a Sporophyte - a multicellular, diploid, spore-producing organism. However, the created spores are haploid, and thus begin the gametophyte phase, in which the microspores (pollen) and megaspores (female receptors), will combine back into a gamete, and begin the sporophyte stage again. So, the pine tree is mostly sporophyte, but has very small gametophyte parts that create gametes. They're very small, but they're there.
In angiosperms the male gametophyte is?
The male gametophyte in an angiosperm is the stamen. The female gametophyte in an angiosperm is the pistil.This is completely wrong. The male gametophyte consists of the generative cell and the tube cell in the pollen grain. The female gametophyte is the 7-celled 8 nucleate embryo sac.
Is pine a flower plant?
A pine is a conifer tree in the genus Pinus. They are also gymnosperms and do not produce flowers. Reproduction is by male and female cones on the same tree.
What structure does the male gametophyte become?
In flowering plants, megaspores become the female gametophytes.
Is a full-grown tree a gametophyte?
no
What are the Spores produced by the small male cone of a pine tree are produced by?
Meiosis
