In heterosporous land plants, _______ produce _______.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Heterosporous land plants produce both microspores (which develop into male gametophytes) and megaspores (which develop into female gametophytes). Therefore, the correct choice is the one that indicates that microgametophytes produce sperm. Choice B correctly identifies microgametophytes but incorrectly identifies their product as eggs. Choice A identifies the correct product (eggs) but incorrectly identifies the producer as microgametophytes (which produce sperm). Choice C is incorrect because it suggests that microgametophytes produce both eggs and sperm, which is not the case in heterosporous plants. Choices D and E are incorrect because they identify megagametophytes (which develop from megaspores) as producers of either sperm (choice D) or both eggs and sperm (choice E), which is not the case in heterosporous plants.
