In plants, \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ are defined as haploid ($1n$) cells that develop into gametophytes. Gametophytes, in turn, produce either haploid ($1n$) male or female \_\_\_\_\_\_\_ that can fuse to form diploid ($2n$) \_\_\_\_\_\_\_. Ozygotes; spores; gametes Ospores; gametes; zygotes Ogametes; zygotes; spores Ogametes; spores; zygotes Ospores; zygotes; gametes

A researcher found a new species and wanted to know if it reproduced through alternation of generations. Which of the following would be consistent with alternation of generations? Sporophytes produce spores by meiosis. Gametes are diploid. Zygotes undergo mitosis to develop into multicellular, haploid gametophytes. Meiosis gives rise directly to the gametes.
