Question

(23: A. Haploid / B. Diploid) sperm and egg unite to form a (24: A. haploid / B. diploid) zygote. After repeated rounds of (25: A. mitosis / B. meiosis) an adult multicellular (26: A. sporophyte / B. gametophyte) plant is ultimately formed. These plants have structures called (27: A. antheridia / B. sporangia) that produce (28: A. haploid / B. diploid) spores through the process of (29: A. mitosis / B. meiosis). Spores disperse from this adult plant and ultimately (if lucky) germinate and undergo (30: A. mitosis / B. meiosis) to produce a multicellular (31: A. sporophyte / B. gametophyte). These (32: A. haploid / B. diploid) individuals have structures called antheridia and archegonia that produce sperm and eggs through the process of (33: A. mitosis / B. meiosis). Sperm and egg unite to form a zygote

Explanation / Answer

(23: A. Haploid sperm and egg unite to form a (24: B. diploid) zygote.
After repeated rounds of (25: A. mitosis ) an adult multicellular (26: A. sporophyte) plant is ultimately formed. These plants have structures called (27B. sporangia) that produce (28: A. haploid) spores through the process of (29: B. meiosis). Spores disperse from this adult plant and ultimately (if lucky) germinate and undergo (30: B. meiosis) to produce a multicellular (31: B. gametophyte). These (32: A. haploid) individuals have structures called antheridia and archegonia that produce sperm and eggs through the process of (33: B. meiosis). Sperm and egg unite to form a zygote…
