Nearly all land
plants have
alternating diploid and
haploid generations.
Gametes are
produced by the
haploid generation,
which is
known as the gametophyte...

allows for
haploid gametes with more than one set of chromosomes. As

Meiosis produces haploid gametes (ova or sperm) that
contain one set of 23 chromosomes. When two
gametes (an egg and a sperm) fuse, the resulting...

cycle of the organism,
gametogenesis occurs by
