Solution

The correct option is D Sporogenetic meiosis
In some plants like algae, meiosis occurs at the time of formation of spores where the spores are formed from the zygote and spore mother cells. In such plants, gametes are formed by the mitosis. They fuse to form a diploid zygote which undergoes the meiosis to form haploid spores.
