A gametophyte dependent upon sporophyte is found in gymnosperms and angiosperms. Hibiscus is a flowering plant (angiosperm).
Polytrichum, Marchantia are bryophytes in which the sporophyte is dependent upon gametophyte as the sporophytic generation is not photosynthetic in nature and depends on the gametophyte for its nourishment. It is therefore dependent or parasitic on the gametophyte.
Pteris is a pteridophyte, in which both sporophyte and gametophyte phases are independent of each other.
