What is the difference between gametophyte and gametangia? Explain without direct definitions.
Answers
Answer:
gametangium is a gamete-producing organ or cell found in many multicellular protists, algae and fungi, and in the gametophytes of plants while gametophyte is (botany) a plant (or the haploid phase in its life cycle) which produces gametes by mitosis in order to produce a zygote.
The result is a multi-cellular haploid organism, called the gametophyte (because it produces gametes at maturity). When it reaches maturity, the gametophyte produces one or more gametangia (singular: gametangium) which are the organs that produce haploid gametes.
