The gametes are smaller than zoospores. ... The reduction division takes place when the zoospores are formed. The haploid zoospores give rise to the gametophytes. Both kinds of plants are morphologically identical and therefore ulva shows an isomorphic alternation of generations.

The diploid adult plant produces haploid zoospores by meiosis, these settle and grow to form haploid male and female plants similar to the diploid plants. When these haploid plants release gametes they unite to produce the zygote which germinates, and grows to produce the diploid plant
