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.
