A plant in which sporophytic generation is represented by zygote isA. PinusB. SelaginellaC. ChlamydomonasD. Dryopteris

Answer» Correct Answer - C
(c) In Chlamydomonas, the plant body is haploid, and representts gametophyte. It reproduces asexually through the formation of zoospores and sexually through gametes. Gametes (haploid) fuse to produce diploid zygote, representing the sporophytic generation. The zygote secretes a wall around it to become a resting zygospore(diploid). The zygote and zygospore are the only diploid structure which represents the diplophase.
