Brown algae show a distinct alternation of generations, characterized by a multicellular sporophyte generation and a multicellular gametophyte generation. The alternation of generations allows for both asexual and sexual reproduction within the life cycle of brown algae.
gametophyte.
no
The process of reproduction for mosses and liverworts is called alternation of generations. This involves the alternation between a haploid gametophyte stage, which produces gametes, and a diploid sporophyte stage, which produces spores. This cycle allows for both sexual and asexual reproduction in these plants.
sporophyte generation, which is the dominant and most visible part of the life cycle in horsetail plants. The sporophyte produces spores through meiosis.

Generations
According to the alternation of generations life cycle when you look at a horsetail plant body you are looking at the sporophytic plant body.
The name given to this life cycle is alternation of generations. In this cycle, plants alternate between a multicellular diploid sporophyte stage that produces spores and a multicellular haploid gametophyte stage that produces gametes.
A gametophyte is the multicellular haploid phase in the life cycle of plants and algae, producing gametes through mitosis. A sporophyte is the multicellular diploid phase in the life cycle of plants and algae, producing spores through meiosis. The two phases alternate in the life cycle of plants and algae through a process called alternation of generations.
Brown algae show a distinct alternation of generations, characterized by a multicellular sporophyte generation and a multicellular gametophyte generation. The alternation of generations allows for both asexual and sexual reproduction within the life cycle of brown algae.
An alternation-of-generations life cycle is a reproductive strategy where an organism alternates between a multicellular diploid stage (sporophyte) and a multicellular haploid stage (gametophyte) in its life cycle. This cycle enables the organism to undergo both sexual and asexual reproduction at different stages.
gametophyte.
The alternation of generations in vascular plants involves a multicellular sporophyte and a multicellular gametophyte stage in their life cycle. Both stages are dependent on each other for reproduction.

no
The phrase used to describe the basic life cycle of all plants is "alternation of generations." This refers to the alternating stages of a plant's life cycle where it switches between a spore-producing phase (gametophyte) and a seed-producing phase (sporophyte).
