Question

Which statement best describes the life cycle of plants such as ferns? Plants have a two-part life cycle, spending part of their life in a diploid phase and part in a haploid phase. Plants have a single life cycle and are entirely diploid. Plants have a single life cycle and are entirely haploid. Different plants have a different number of phases in their life cycle.

Answer 1

The correct answer is that ferns have two part in their life cycle: Diploid phase and haploid phase

The life cycle of a fern has two parts: sporophyte stage and gametophyte stage. The gametophyte stage of ferns are haploid which releases gametes and the sporophyte stage are diploid that produces spores. This kind of life cycle is known as the "alternation of generation".

Answer 2

Answer:

A.  Plants have a two-part life cycle, spending part of their life in a diploid phase and part in a multicellular haploid phase. Humans spend their lives in a diploid phase and produce gametes that are haploid.
