4 Main Patterns of Life Cycle in Algae
The following points highlight the four main patterns of life cycle in algae. The patterns are: 1. Haplontic Life Cycle 2. Diplontic Life Cycle 3. Diplohaplontic Life Cycle 4. Triphasic Life Cycle. Pattern # 1. Haplontic Life Cycle: The plant body is gametophyte (haploid) and sporophyte (diploid) stage is represented only by zygote. The gametophytic plant develops hapÂloid gametes in [...]
