Question

What is the ploidy of the following structures: gametophyte, seed, spore, sporophyte?

a) 2n
b) n
c) 3n
d) 4n

Answer 1

The ploidy of the gametophyte, seed, spore, and sporophyte are n, 2n, n, and 2n respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ploidy of the structures mentioned are as follows:

1. The gametophyte is haploid (n).
2. The seed is diploid (2n).
3. The spore can vary in ploidy depending on the organism, but in general it is haploid (n).
4. The sporophyte is diploid (2n).
