Question 4 Match the description with the appropriate term. Where more than one answer may be correct, choose the best answer (most specific answer, if appropriate, or most general correct answer if the description can refer to multiple terms) A. A diploid plant (a multicellular, diploid organism or individual) A haploid plant a multicellular diploid organism or individual) A plant that produces spores "A plant that produces gametes A spore An egg An archegonium A gametangium An antheridium A sporangium A gametophyte '-' A n organ or structure on a gametophyte in which gametes are produced F n organ or structure on a gametophyte in which eggs are produced G n organ or structure on a gametophyte in which sperm are produced H.As porophyte YA single cell that, if fertilized, becomes a zygote The multicellular structure in which a zygote forms in land plants The structure in land plants in which an embryo begins to grow n organ or structure on a plant in which meiosis occurs n organ or structure on a plant in which spores are produced YA single haploid plant cell that has sporopollenin in its wall YA single haploid cell that divides to form a gametophyte

3.a sporophyte

4.a gametophyte

5.a gametangium

6.an archaegonium

7.an anthredium

8.an egg

9.an archaegonium

10.an archaegonium

11.a sporangium

12.a sporangium

13.a spore

14.a spore

The plant life cycle alternates between haploid and diploid generations. Embryonic development is seen only in the diploid generation. The embryo, however, is produced by the fusion of gametes, which are formed only by the haploid generation.

Gametes develop in the multicellular haploid gametophyte (from the Greek phyton, “plant”). Fertilization gives rise to a multicellular diploid sporophyte, which produces haploid spores via meiosis. This type of life cycle is called a haplodiplontic life cycle
