Some types of algae that show a distinct alternation of generations are members of the green algae group, such as Ulva and Spirogyra. These algae have a haploid gametophyte generation and a diploid sporophyte generation. The gametophyte generation produces haploid gametes that fuse to form a diploid zygote, which develops into the sporophyte generation that produces haploid spores.
