Question

Where does meiosis take place in the moss life cycle?

Answer 1

In the sporangium at the time of spore formation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis is the process of cell division in which the single parent cell is divided into the four haploid daughter cells. The meiosis can takes place in both the plant as well as animal cells.

The meiosis in case of plant cell is required for the formation of spore and the female germ cells. The meiosis occur in the specialize bag of the cells known as sporangium and the cells undergoes the two meiotic division results in the spore formation.

Thus, the answer is in the sporangium at the time of spore formation.

Answer 2

The correct answer is - in the sporangium at the time of spore generation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mosses are the member of the bryophyta, a land spore bearing non vascular plant that found almost everywhere in the world except salt waters. Moss plant have two stage life cycle one with haploid cells gametophyte and oth diploid life cycle called sporophyte that bear spores.

Meisis takes place in the sporopthyte stage, in sporangium a specialized structure that produce spores. These spores produce male and female gametophyte by diving in to two.

Thus, the coreect answer is - in the sporangium at the time of spore generation.
