Sporophyte is____________?
Correct answer: C. Diploid
- A. Monoploid
- B. Haploid
- C. Diploid
- D. Polyploidy
Explanation
The sporophyte develops from the fusion of two haploid gametes, so it has two chromosome sets and is diploid. The likely alternative is b, haploid, because spores are produced by the sporophyte, but spores become haploid through meiosis and are not the sporophyte itself.

About Concept of Evolution
Evolution is the heritable change in populations over generations, driven by mutation, recombination, natural selection, genetic drift and reproductive isolation. Questions examine variation, adaptation, survival and reproduction, speciation, fossil and anatomical evidence, and the difference between individual acclimatization and evolutionary change in a population.
