Match the plant with the kind of life cycle it exhibits :

List - I: (a) Spirogyra (b) Fern (c) Funaria (d) Cycas

List - II: (i) Dominant diploid sporophyte vascular plant, with highly reduced male or female gametophyte (ii) Dominant haploid free-living gametophyte (iii) Dominant diploid sporophyte alternating with reduced gametophyte called prothallus (iv) Dominant haploid leafy gametophyte alternating with partially dependent multicellular sporophyte

1. (a) - (ii), (b) - (iv), (c) - (i), (d) - (iii)

2. (a) - (iv), (b) - (i), (c) - (ii), (d) - (iii)

3. (a) - (ii), (b) - (iii), (c) - (iv), (d) - (i)

4. (a) - (iii), (b) - (iv), (c) - (i), (d) - (ii)

Best answer

Answer: 3. (a) - (ii), (b) - (iii), (c) - (iv), (d) - (i)

  • Spirogyra: dominant haploid free-living gametophyte, (ii).
  • Fern: dominant diploid sporophyte, small prothallus, (iii).
  • Funaria: dominant haploid leafy gametophyte with partly dependent sporophyte, (iv).
  • Cycas: dominant sporophyte with highly reduced gametophytes, (i).

So option 3.
