See pictures of the life cycle on pg 621. In some groups ( ), the zygote is dispersed after fertilization. Bryophytes illustrate how the alternation of generations allows the dispersal of spores in the air. 2 specialized generations: one for fertilization and the other for dispersal. Release swimming sperm in the environ to fertilize the egg. Why grow short b/c rely on continuous film of external water and why they are small so less distance. Some common parts to know for like all plants. Spores- haploid cells that were produced by meiosis of diploid ones. Sporophyte- the diploid organism that produces the spores. This is part of the sporophyte generation. Gametophyte- the haploid organisms that produces gametes.
