ALTERNATION of GENERATIONS in PLANTS The Vacillation between Asexual and Sexual Reproductive Cycles as seen in the Plant Kingdom
The first cell of any Gametophyte Generationis normally a SPORE (MEIOSPORE) http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/sciences/BotanicalSciences/ClassificationPlants/Cryptogamia/Bryophyta/NonvascularPlants/NonvascularPlants.htm
Any cell of a gametophyte generation is HAPLOID (n). sparkcharts.sparknotes.com/biology/biology/section11.php
The first cell of any SPOROPHYTE GENERATION is normally a ZYGOTE. http://io.uwinnipeg.ca/~simmons/2152web/2152/lb5pg1.htm
Any cell of a Sporophyte Generation is DIPLOID (2n) https://eapbiofield.wikispaces.com/file/view/29_05aAltGenerations-L.jpg
The change from a sporophyte to a gametophyte generation occurs as a result of MEIOSIS. http://bioactive.mrkirkscience.com/26/images/ch26summary.jpg
The change from a gametophyte to a sporophyte generation occurs as a result of SYNGAMY (fusion of gametes) or, better known as FERTILIZATION. http://faculty.southwest.tn.edu/rburkett/classi40.jpg
