Sporophytes are diploid plants that use meiosis to produce spores. These spores are haploid cells that grow into haploid gametophytes. ... Meiosis occurs in the sporangium of asporophyte and results in haploid spores. These spores contain one cell that can become another new plant without mating.

Hope it helps!!

Answer:

Gametophyte -

  • It is haploid phase of the life cycle.
  • It is specialised to produce gametes.
  • All the divisions are mitotic.
  • It is included into sexual generation.
  • The fusion of gametes produces zygote.
  • It is formed by germination of meiospore.

Sporophyte -

  • It is the diploid phase of the life cycle.
  • It produces spores called meiospores.
  • Meiosis is the process of formation of meiospores.
  • It is included under asexual generation.
  • Meiospores form gametophytes.
  • It is formed by growth of a zygote.
