Ans.

Ferns are vascular plants, which reproduce through spores and do not have seeds and flowers. Life cycle of ferns shows two different phases, sporophyte and gametophyte.

The sporophyte represents diploid stage that releases spores through meiosis. The spores are released from sporangia, found under the fronds of sporophyte. These spores grow into heart-shaped, small plant, which represents haploid gametophyte stage.

The male and female organs, present in mature gametophyte undergo fertilization and form zygote. The zygote develop into mature sporophyte by mitosis, which again makes gametophyte.

Thus, the correct answer is option). 'spores.'

lianna [129]

Answer:

Tetraploid wheat evolved by allopolyploidization and subsequent diploid-like behavior due to cytological diploidization

Explanation:

Durum wheat (<em>Triticum durum</em>) or pasta wheat, is a tetraploid wheat species that has 28 chromosomes, i.e., seven pairs in each genome (2n = 4x = 28). Durum wheat was domesticated from wild emmer wheat, which originated by hybridization of two diploid wheat species with 14 chromosomes: <em>Triticum monococcum</em> (genome AA) and one wild progenitor (genome BB). <em>Triticum durum </em>is a typical example of evolution by hybridization and polyploidization, where the resultant tetraploid species has two complete sets of chromosomes. Allopolyploidization is one of the most common types of plant speciation. During meiosis, 28 chromosomes form 14 homologous chromosome pairs, because homologous chromosomes have developed 'restriction of pairing' (i.e., cytological diploidization). The restriction of pairing to fully homologous chromosomes ensures a correct meiotic behavior, which otherwise would be altered due to the high level of homology that still exists among chromosomes from different wheat progenitors.
