The sporophyte phase is diploid because it develops from the fusion of two haploid gametes during fertilization, resulting in a zygote with two sets of chromosomes (one from each parent). This diploid organism then undergoes mitotic division to grow and produce spores through meiosis, which are haploid. This life cycle alternates between diploid sporophyte and haploid gametophyte phases, allowing for genetic diversity and adaptation in varying environments.
What else can I help you with?
Green algae such as Ulva demonstrate an alteration of generation The diploid phase is called the?
Sporophyte generation
Spores are produced by what in the diploid phase?
Spores are produced by the sporophyte in the diploid phase of a plant's life cycle through meiosis. The sporophyte is the multicellular, diploid phase of a plant that produces haploid spores as part of its reproductive process. These spores will eventually develop into the gametophyte phase of the plant.
Are the cells of fern that you see haploid or diploid?
The cells of a fern plant that you see are diploid. Ferns have a lifecycle which alternates between a diploid sporophyte generation and a haploid gametophyte generation. The visible fern plant is the diploid sporophyte generation.
In plant what is the diploid form called?
In plants, what is the diploid form called?
Which stage in the alternation of generations life cycle would fern represent?
The Sporophyte life cycle is the dominant stage in Ferns (vascular non-seed plants)
What is the diploid phase of a plant that produces spores?
The diploid form in a plant's life cycle is called the sporophyte. Land plants have a complex life cycle that involves an alternation of generations between a haploid gametophyte and a diploid sporophyte.

What is a sporophyte?
The diploid generation in the life cycle of a plant, and that produces haploid spores by meiosis. A diploid form of a plant
Gametophyte and sporophyte?
Gametophyte-haploid Sporophyte-diploid
Are the cells of fern that you see haploid or diploid?
The cells of a fern plant that you see are diploid. Ferns have a lifecycle which alternates between a diploid sporophyte generation and a haploid gametophyte generation. The visible fern plant is the diploid sporophyte generation.

In plants, what is the diploid form called?
What do all plant life cycles have in common?
All plant life cycles involve alternating generations between a haploid (gametophyte) and a diploid (sporophyte) phase. This alternation allows for sexual reproduction, with gametes produced by the gametophyte combining to form a new diploid sporophyte generation.
Can the sporophyte stage of a plant be described as haploid?
No, the sporophyte stage of a plant is typically diploid, meaning it contains two sets of chromosomes. The sporophyte is produced through the fusion of haploid gametes during sexual reproduction, resulting in a diploid zygote that develops into the sporophyte plant.
What is alternation of genes?
A reproductive cycle in which a haploid (n) phase (the gametophyte), gives rise to gametes, which after fusion to form a zygote, germinate to produce a diploid (2n) phase (the sporophyte). Spores produced by meiotic division from the sporophyte give rise to new gametophytes, completing the cycle.
What is the plant diploid form called?
A sporophyte is the diploid form and a gametophyte is haploid form.
Which stage in the alternation of generations life cycle would fern represent?
The Sporophyte life cycle is the dominant stage in Ferns (vascular non-seed plants)
