Answer:

Haploid spores are released to form zygote, which grow into gametophytes.

Explanation:

The life cycle of the fern has 2 different stages :

(1) Sporophyte in which fern releases spores. (2) Gametophyte in which fern releases gametes. Sporophytes plants are diploid, Gametophyte plants are haploid and this type of life cycle is known as Alteration of Generation.

Haploid spore grows into a haploid gametophytes and then the gametophyte is fertilize and grow into a diploid sporophyte. Diploid sporophytes produces spores, completing the life cycle.
