Which of the following statements is true about the alternation of generations life cycle in angiosperms? the sporophyte is multicellular, the gametophyte is unicellular, and the spores and gametes are all haploid the sporophytes produce the gametes the sporophyte is the only multicellular part of the cycle fertilization is required to form the sporophyte the sporophyte grows on the gametophyte

Adi S.
Alternation of generations is observed in all land plants. Which of the following statements is TRUE about this life cycle? Spores go through meiosis to produce gametophyte. Zygote is haploid. Spores are haploid. After fertilization, zygote goes through meiosis to produce sporophyte.
