Question

Formation of gametophyte directly from sporophyte without meiosis is?

• A. Apospory
• B. Apogamy
• C. Parthenogenesis
• D. Amphimixis

Answer 1

The correct option is A Apospory

Formation of gametophyte directly from sporophyte without meiosis is called Apospory. eg Ranunculus

The Development of sporophyte/embryo from gametophytic tissue without fusion of gametes is called Apogamy. eg. fern

Apomixis is unusual sexual reproduction where there is no meiosis and syngamy. eg hawthorns

A form of asexual reproduction in which an egg develops into an embryo without being fertilized is called parthenogenesis. eg honey bees

hence, option (A) is correct.
