Examples of sporophyte
sporophyte
A mature animal is diploid and so is, in one sense, equivalent to a sporophyte.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The sporophyte is short-lived and remains dependent on its parent gametophyte.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The zygote divides by mitotic division and grows into a sporophyte that is diploid.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Gymnosperms, like all vascular plants have a sporophyte-dominant life-cycle.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The common name refers to the elongated horn-like structure, which is the sporophyte.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The horn-shaped sporophyte grows from an archegonium embedded deep in the gametophyte.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Unlike liverworts, most hornworts have true stomata on their sporophyte as mosses do.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Members of Lycopodiophyta bear a protostele, and the sporophyte generation is dominant.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The sporophyte phase produces spores within the sporangium by meiosis.
From the en.wikipedia.org
- The spore-producing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations
- 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 algae that has a double set of chromosomes. ...
- The plant (or the diploid phase in its life cycle) which produces spores by meiosis in order to produce gametophytes
- A diploid organism arising from a zygote; produces meiospores by meiosis.
- The result of the mitotic division of the haploid spore. It can also form from the union of haploid gametes and later give rise meiotically to haploid spores.
- Diploid life phase that produces haploid spores (asexual reproduction)
- A spore-bearing plant.
- 1. The spore-bearing part or generation. In mosses, it consists of the seta and capsule and constitutes the so-called fruit. In ferns, the conspicuous plants that bear spores.
