Solution

The correct option is A

Haplodiplontic


The diplohaplontic or haplodiplontic phase of the life cycle is characterised by the presence of both sporophyte and gametophyte. Both of these phases are photosynthetic, multi-celled bodies and often free-living with almost equal phases - the diplophase and haplophase. All pteridophytes, bryophytes, cord moss and some brown algae have diplohaplontic life cycles.
