When and where does reduction division take place in the life cycle of a liverwort, a moss, a fern, a gymnosperm and an angiosperm?
Which of the following statements are correct regarding the sexual reproduction and life cycle of bryophytes? S1: Antherozoids are biflagellate, motile, and are released into water to reach the archegonium. S2: Fertilisation involves the fusion of a male gamete with a single egg, leading to the formation of a diploid zygote within the archegonium. S3: The zygote in bryophytes immediately undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores, thus completing the life cycle. S4: The sporophyte formed from the zygote is attached to the photosynthetic gametophyte and depends on it for nourishment. S5: Some cells of the sporophyte undergo reduction division to produce haploid spores, which germinate to form new gametophytes.
