Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C haplo-diplontic
Bryophytes and pteridophytes show haplo-diplontic life cycle where both the haploid and the diploid phases are multicellular.
In bryophytes the haploid gametophyte is dominant and alternates with a short-lived sporophytic phase which is totally or partially dependent on the gametophyte.
In pteridophytes the sporophytic phase is dominant and alternates with a short-lived and independent gametophytic phase.
