Alternation of Generations in Plants — NEET Biology
📚 Practice Concept📖 NCERT Source
Life cycle of plants has two distinct phases – the diploid sporophytic and the haploid gametophytic – that alternate with each other. The lengths of the haploid and diploid phases, and whether these phases are free–living or dependent on others, vary among different groups in plants. This phenomenon is called alternation of generations. You will study further details of this kingdom in Chapter 3.
