All land plants, and some algae, have life cycles in which a haploid gametophyte generation alternates with a diploid sporophyte , the generation of a plant or alga that has a double set of chromoso...

Sporophyte - Topic:Biology - Online Encyclopedia ... The sporophyte produces spores (hence the name), by meiosis. These meiospores develop into a gametophyte. Both the spores and the resulting gametophyte are haploid, meaning they only have one set of homologous chromosomes.

Definition and other additional information on Sporophyte from Biology-Online.org dictionary. ... every plant has the gametophyte, the haploid stage that gives rise to gametes, and the sporophyte, the diploid stage that gives rise to spores. In mosses, the actual plant that you see is the gamethophyte, whereas the sporophyte...

Similar to plants, the moss lifecycle is completed in two distinct stages - the gametophyte and the sporophyte. The term that describes this type of life history is called alternation of heteromorphic generations.

As the sporophyte continues to grow, it eventually develops numerous structures with spores inside, referred to as sporangia. The sporangia form on the underside of fronds or on specialized fertile fronds, depending on the species.

Projections are found on the walls of the gametophytic cells which are contiguous with the sporophyte foot . They are not present on the walls separating two adjacent gametophytic cells . Like those of the foot, the projections stain intensely after PAS treatment, are bounded by the plasma membrane, and have a...

The sporophyte generation thus starts with a zygote. Its cells contain the diploid number of chromosomes. Eventually, though, certain cells will undergo meiosis, forming spores and starting a new gametophyte generation.
