Ferns undergo alternation of generations in which a A. Dominant sporophyte alternates with an independent gametophyte B. Dominant gametophyte alternates with a dependent sporophyte C. Sporophyte and a gametophyte have equal life spans D. Gametophyte produces gametes by meiosis E. Gametophyte alternates with a haploid zygote
Joanna Q.
In ferns, archegonia and antheridia: a- are part of the sporophyte generation b- produce spores. c- are found on the underside of the fronds (leaves). d- are part of the gametophyte generation.
