How does the gametophyte generation of a plant differ from the sporophyte 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.
Summarize the process of alternation of generations?
A sporophyte will produce spores. Spores develop into gametophytes which have one sex (They are either male or female). Gametophytes produce gametes (egg/sperm, depending on sex of gametophyte) The gametes fuse together by fertilization producing a zygote. The zygote develops into the sporophyte and the process starts again. - ThatTechnoKid
What does the gametophyte stage of a moss or fern life cycle produce?
Gametes in the sex organs
Compare and contrast the gametophyte stage and the sporophyte stage?
Gametophyte stage occurs when cells in reproductive organs undergo meiosis and produce haploid cells. Sporophyte stage is the joining of haploid sex cells. These two stages help in the production of a new plant.
How have the sporophyte and gametophyte changed as plants have evolved?
The gametophyte has become smaller, and the sporophyte has become larger. To begin with main plant body was gametophytic and sporophyte was dependent on it. Later on, as the evolution progressed, both gametophyte and sporophyte became independent and ultimatly gametophyte became dependent on sporophyte.
In the sporophyte stage what do plants produce?
spores
What do plants produce in sporophyte stage?
spores
Sexual reproduction in sponges produce an organism are called?
Sporophyte
In flowering plants the sporophyte does what?
Flowering plants do not have a sporophyte. They have antheridium and archegonium to produce their gametes. Sporophyte is found in ferns, mosses, club mosses, lycophytes, etc but not in flowering plants. Flowering plants produces pollen while a sporophyte produces spores
Do maple trees have leaves?
The maple trees that you see are in the sporophyte stage of the plant life cycle. A sporophyte will produce spores which then develop into gametophytes. So, yes, maple trees have spores (if you are talking about the sporophyte stage). The sporophyte stage is part of the life cycle of all land plants.

What is the second generation produce in mosses?
Second generation produced in mosses is sporophyte on the gametophytic plant body.
What stage is dominant in ferns?
the Sporophyte generation
What do haploid gametes form?
two haploid gametes fuse to produce a zygote which develops into a diploid sporophyte. <3, Katie:)
