Which statement best describes the life cycle of plants such as ferns? Plants have a two-part life cycle, spending part of their
life in a diploid phase and part in a haploid phase. Plants have a single life cycle and are entirely diploid. Plants have a single life cycle and are entirely haploid. Different plants have a different number of phases in their life cycle.
<span>
Plants have a two-part life cycle, spending part of their life in a
diploid phase and part in a multicellular haploid phase. Humans spend
their lives in a diploid phase and produce gamete</span>
The correct answer is that ferns have two part in their life cycle: Diploid phase and haploid phase
The life cycle of a fern has two parts: sporophyte stage and gametophyte stage. The gametophyte stage of ferns are haploid which releases gametes and the sporophyte stage are diploid that produces spores. This kind of life cycle is known as the "alternation of generation".
The stage that scientists begin to ask questions and attempt to explain observations is A. forming hypotheses. This is because a hypothesis is basically a testable question about observations scientists make.
If two homozygous plants with contrasting traits are crossed, the
expected genotypes for the offspring will be heterozygous. The
dominant trait would be expressed, but they'd be carriers for the
recessive trait.
