Ans.

Gametophyte shows haploid, gamete-forming stage of plant's life cycle, while sporophyte shows diploid, spore-forming stage of plant's life cycle. In green algae, gametophytes and sporophytes are isomorphic (indistinguishable). In bryophytes, such as mosses, gametophyte shows dominant stage as it is most visible stage in their life-cycle. In vascular plants, such as ferns and seed plants, sporophytes show dominant stage.  

Thus, 'seed plants show briefest gametophyte stage' and 'mosses show longest gametophyte stage.'

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

ATP

Explanation:

ATP is regarded as 'root of energetics' for living organisms. So, the organisms utilizes ATP to transport material and eliminate wastes from the body. Not only these functions are carried out by ATP but also several others infact all energy requiring processes are carried out ATP. e.g. muscle movements, neurotransmission, heart beats and various chemical reactions in the body all are carried out with the help of ATP.

In animals ATP is produced from the breakdown of glucose in the cellular respiration, glucose is obtained from the diet we take in. In plants ATP is generated from the process of photosynthesis. The source of energy within ATP is phosphate bonds, the breakdown of one phosphate bond while conversion of ATP into ADP produces or releases 30.6 KJ/mole of energy.
