Question

Is archegonium a sporophyte or gametophyte?

Answer 1

Archegonium:

1. Archegonium is the female gametophyte.
2. It is flask-shaped and produces a single egg.
3. This egg then fuses with the antherozoid to form the zygote which is the sporophyte.
4. Thus, archegonium is a gametophyte, not a sporophyte.
