explain briefly the attention of generation in byophytes​

Answer 1

$\huge\mathbb\green{Answer}$

The bryophytes show an alternation of generations between the independent gametophyte generation, which produces the sex organs and sperm and eggs, and the dependent sporophyte generation, which produces the spores.

$\huge\bold\pink\bigstar{ Information}$

According to the latest classification, Bryophyta is divided into three classes: Hepaticopsida (Liverworts) Anthocerotopsida (Hornworts) Bryopsida (Mosses)

Answer 2

Answer:

Bryophytes are the non-vascular plants. In the life cycle, they are the only embryophytes (plants that produce an embryo) whose life history includes a dominant gametophyte (haploid) stage. Alternation of generations is a life-cycle involving two phases of life, which regularly alternate with each other. In Bryophytes, the first phase is the gametophytic phase, in which gametes are produced, that contain half the number of chromosomes. This is the dominant phase in the life of Bryophytes and reproduces sexually by egg and sperm. Once the egg and sperm fuse to produce a zygote, starts the second phase. The zygote germinates to produce the sporophyte, whose cells possess the complete number of chromosomes. This second phase, the sporophytic phase, is the spore producing phase. The sporophyte cannot exist independently. It is composed of a capsule, a stalk, and a foot that attaches the sporophyte body to the gametophyte. The sporophyte reproduces asexually by means of spores, which are produced by meiosis and are haploid. Each spore germinates to produce a gametophyte, which is the independent phase. This way, the life cycle is completed.
