During the life cycle of a plant gametophyte is to n as sporophyte is to?
Basically, plants have two stages in their life cycle, they can appear as a gametophyte or a sporophyte.
In what stage does the plant produce spores?
Plants produce spores during the gametophyte, or haploid, stages. Spores are the sex cells for the plant. The spores will then germinate and produce new plants.
What is a gametophyte and sporophyte?
gametophyte: The gamete-bearing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations sporophyte: The spore-producing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations
What generation in the plant life cycle produces gametes?
The sporophyte generation is the result of the fusion of gametes. :)
What are the two stages of plant life?
Plants have what is called an alternation of generations in their life cycle. The two stages are called the sporophyte generation and the gametophyte generation. The sporophyte generation is diploid (has pairs of chromosomes). It produces spores by meiosis (reduction division), so the spores are haploid (contain only one chromosome from each pair). The spores divide by mitosis to produce a multicellular, haploid gametophyte generation. The gametophyte produces gametes (by mitosis) which fuse during fertilization to form a diploid zygote. This then develops into the sporophyte, completing the life cycle. The plants which we call mosses and ferns are the gametophyte generations. However conifers and flowering plants are the sporophyte generation of their life cycle. This is much easier to understand if you see a diagram.

Which is produced when an egg and a sperm unite during a plant's life cycle?
The gametophyte.
The green leafy moss plant is part of what moss cycle?
The gametophyte stage.
In what stage does the plant produce spores?
Plants produce spores during the gametophyte, or haploid, stages. Spores are the sex cells for the plant. The spores will then germinate and produce new plants.

What is a form of a moss plant that produces gametes?
Moss must grow close together and must have water to complete their life cycle. Gametophyte stage is dominant in the moss's life cycle where the eggs and sperm are produced. Mosses produce two kinds of gametes.
What is a gametophyte and sporophyte?
gametophyte: The gamete-bearing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations sporophyte: The spore-producing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations
How are the fern sporophyte and gametophyte stage the same?
In reference to the sporophyte and gametophyte, are the stages of the plant's life cycle thus being the same.
Is the green leafy plant that composes the major part of the moss life cycle?
GAMETOPHYTE
What are the two major stages of a plant life-cycle?
The Sporophyte stage and the gametophyte stage
In a plant's life cycle a spore develops into a stage known as the?
Prothallus/Prothallium
The is the green leafy plant that composes the major part of the moss life cycle?
gametophyte
