What is the major difference between the gametophytes of a seedlees plant and a seed plant?
Seed plants are flowering plants so they product pollen that land on the female ovule and then produce a pollen tube that releases 2 sperm to fertilize the ovum and the polar nuclei and these form into a seed. In other seedless plants like algae and mosses the plants produce spores which are similar to pollen and many different versions of female gametes. To be honest seedless plants have many different life cycles that are much more in depth so the fertilization process and the maturation of the plants are very different.
Why do most plants produced many more seeds than will ever become adult plants?
It is a numbers game. Most plants produce more seeds than are likely to become adult plants BECAUSE so many seeds fail to grow to adulthood. If they did not overproduce, the species would die out. In fact, one way to measure the "effectiveness" of a plant's seeds is to look at how many it produces. Plants that produce the most seeds in comparison with the seed survival rate are those that have ineffective seeds. Plants that produce fewer seeds generally have more effective ways of ensuring that the seed survives to produce the next generation of plants. Some of the ways that plants use to increase the effectiveness of their seeds are by protecting them with shells (so that they are resistant to the weather), making them larger (so that they have a lot of stored food to give them a good start), making them taste good to birds (so they will be eaten and deposited along with fertilizer).
