Plants have an intermediate body form called a sporophyte that undergos meiosis. the cells produced grow, through mitosis, into

another intermediate body form called a gametophyte, which divides by mitosis to form gametes. the gametes fertilize, and the zygote grows, through mitosis, into another sporophyte. this form of a sexual life cycle is referred to as

The answer is alternation of generation. It occurs in those plants and algae in the Archaeplastida and the Heterokontophyta that have distinct sexual haploid and asexual diploid stages. The relationship between the sporophyte and gametophyte varies among different groups of plants. In those algae which have alternation of generations, the sporophyte and gametophyte are separate independent organisms, which may or may not have a similar appearance. In liverworts, mosses, and hornworts, the sporophyte is less well developed than the gametophyte and is largely dependent on it. In all modern vascular plants the gametophyte is less well developed than the sporophyte.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Mitosis is a type of cell division that takes place in the somatic cells where two daughter cells are formed with the same number of chromosomes as the parent (diploid 2n). Meiosis is a type of cell division that takes place in the sex cells where four daughter cells are formed with half the number of chromosomes as the parent (haploid, n). In this case, if the gametes were formed by mitosis then it means they would have a diploid (2n) number of chromosomes.
