Protists are the eukaryotes which are neither plants, animals nor fungi. But they are plant-like, fungi-like and animal-like organisms.  It is difficult to classify all the protists in one kingdom Protista because of their numerous diversified traits. There are a few parasites, predators and also producers among the protists. Some have a cell wall, while others have a cell membrane. Mode of locomotion can be flagella, cilia or the pseudopodia. The best example is the <em>Euglena</em> exhibiting both plant and animal like characteristics in having a chloroplast performing photosynthesis and exhibiting locomotion by flagella. These diversified traits made the scientists to reclassify the protists. The kingdoms which arose from protist ancestors include the kingdom animalia, plantae and mycota sharing common characteristic features with their ancestor. Scientists say that we should not look for the earliest ancestors of animals among modern-day protists because, the modern day protists have gone through a process of evolution which makes them different from their early ancestors. The gradual changes during the course of evolution has made them different from their ancestors with respect to their structure, adaptations and also the genetic composition.

Consider the terms egg, sperm, and sporophyte. Which term links egg and sperm directly to sporophyte?
NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

La fecundación es el proceso por el cual dos gametos (masculino y femenino) se fusionan durante la reproducción sexual para crear un cigoto con un genoma derivado de ambos progenitores. Los dos fines principales de la fecundación son la combinación de genes derivados de ambos progenitores y la generación de un cigoto.

En el caso de las plantas con semillas pros, hay que diferenciar el fenómeno de la fecundación propiamente dicho (unión íntima de dos células sexuales hasta confundirse sus núcleos respectivos y, en mayor o menor grado, sus citoplasmas),1​ del proceso biológico que lo antecede: la polinización, en el que los granos de polen, desarrollados en las tecas que contiene cada antera de un estambre (hoja reproductora masculina), son transportados por el viento o los insectos a los estigmas, donde germinan emitiendo un tubo polínico que crece hacia el ovario. En este caso no se trata de gametos, sino de esporas, pues cada grano de polen contiene dos gametos o células reproductoras masculinas
