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

Flowering Plants.
Yes, non-flowering plants, such as mosses, ferns, and conifers, have a life cycle that typically includes both a sporophyte and a gametophyte stage. In these plants, the sporophyte generation produces spores, which grow into the gametophyte. The gametophyte then produces gametes that can fuse to form a new sporophyte, thus continuing the cycle. This life cycle can vary significantly among different groups of non-flowering plants.
In the plant kingdom, the phyla that have a dominant sporophyte generation include the Angiosperms (flowering plants) and Gymnosperms (non-flowering seed plants). Additionally, the vascular plants, such as Ferns (Pteridophyta), also exhibit a dominant sporophyte stage, although the gametophyte is more independent compared to those in non-vascular plants. In contrast, in non-vascular plants like Mosses (Bryophyta), the gametophyte generation is dominant.
In flowering plants, also known as angiosperms, the dominant generation is the sporophyte generation. This diploid phase is characterized by the presence of structures such as roots, stems, and leaves, and it produces flowers and seeds. The gametophyte generation is reduced and typically exists within the flowers, where it produces gametes. Thus, the sporophyte is the prominent and visible stage in the life cycle of flowering plants.
Blade grass, like other flowering plants, primarily exists in the sporophyte stage of its life cycle. The sporophyte is the dominant phase, characterized by the production of seeds and flowers. The gametophyte stage is reduced and typically occurs within the reproductive structures of the sporophyte. Thus, blade grass is predominantly a sporophyte.
it is a sporophyte
You get both flowering plants and non-flowering plants; non-flowering are things like mosses, ferns and liverworts which produce spore, flowering plants produce seeds
There are two types of flowering plants. These two types of flowering plants are the perennials and the annual flowering plants.
Flowering plants require pollinatio non-flowering plants do not.
