Alternation of generations is the fluctuation of the diploid and haploid stages in plants. The diploid stage occurs through mitosis while the haploid stage works through meisos and asexual reproduction. In vascular plants, the diploid stage produces seeds. In non-vascular plants, the haploid stage produces the spores.

Alternation of generations is developed due to haploid and diploid condition in plant. Haploid has n number of chromosome and diploid has 2n number of chromosome.

Further Explanation:

All the living things reproduce through a process referred to as reproduction. The process of reproduction can occur in two types:

• Asexual reproduction

• Sexual reproduction

The asexual reproduction is a major type of reproduction in single-cell organisms like bacteria, Protista and archaea. Some fungi and plants also reproduce sexually. In this process, the offspring is produced from one parent and also pass the genetic information from one parent. The offspring is exact copy of parent because there is no genetic variation.

Alternation of generations is the fluctuation of the diploid and haploid stages in plants. The diploid stage takes place by the process of mitosis. On the other hand the haploid stage takes place by the process of asexual reproduction and meiosis. In the vascular plants, the diploid stage generates seeds. In the non-vascular plants, haploid stage makes the spores.

- always expressed when one or two alleles are present
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

A dominant phenotype will be expressed when at least one allele of its associated type is present, whereas a recessive phenotype will only be expressed when both alleles are of its associated type. However, there are exceptions to the way heterozygotes express themselves in the phenotype.

What is the ultimate measure of evolutionary success?
vfiekz [6]

There is only one measure of "evolutionary success": having more offspring. A "useful" trait gets conserved and propagated by the simple virtue of there being more next-generation individuals carrying it and particular genetic feature "encoding" it. That's all there is to it.

One can view this as genes "wishing" to create phenotypic features that would propagate them (as in "Selfish Gene"), or as competition between individuals, or groups, or populations. But those are all metaphors making it easier to understand the same underlying phenomenon: random change and environmental pressure which makes the carrier more or less successful at reproduction.

You will sometimes hear the term "evolutionary successful species" applied to one that spread out of its original niche, or "evolutionary successful adaptation" for one that spread quickly through population (like us or our lactase persistence mutation), but, again, that's the same thing.
