Solution

The correct option is A Sporophyte
Sporophyte produces spores and gametophyte produces gametes. In gymnosperms, the dominant phase is sporophyte. They spend most part of their life cycle with diploid cells. The dominant sporophyte alternates with short-lived gametophyte phase.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Sporophyte.'
