Document Summary

Diploid cell or organism that has paired chromosomes, one from each parent has two copies of its chromosomes. Sporophyte is the diploid multicellular stage in the life cycle of a plant or alga. Gemmae capsule and gemmae is a single cell, or a mass of cells, or a modified bud of tissue, that detaches from the parent and develops into a new individual. This type of asexual reproduction is referred to as fragmentation. It is a means of asexual propagation in plants. Protonema is a thread-like chain of cells that forms the earliest stage (the haploid phase) of a bryophyte life cycle. When a moss first grows from the spore, it grows as a _______________ which develops into a leafy gametophore. Sori is a cluster of sporangia (structures producing and containing spores) in ferns and fungi. Which reproduce and spread through spores, are plants that contain vascular tissue, but do not flower or seed.
