Letters indicate the sporophyte or structures that include the sporophyte

A, G, H, I, J

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A sporophyte is the diploid multicellular stage in the life cycle of a plant or alga. It develops from the zygote produced when a haploid egg cell is fertilized by a haploid sperm and each sporophyte cell therefore has a double set of chromosomes, one set from each parent.
  • The basic function of the sporophyte is to create spores – that much is known already.
  • The spores produce the gametophytes that give rise to the male and female gametes through the process of meiosis
  • Sporophyte the asexual and usually diploid phase, producing spores from which the gametophyte arise.
  • It is the dominant form in vascular plants.
  • A sporophyte is a multicellular diploid generation found in plants and algae that undergo alternation of generations. It produces haploid spores that develop into a gametophyte.
  • The gametophyte then makes gametes that fuse and grow into a sporophyte
