"Two identical gametes will unite and undergo fertilization to form a diploid zygote. Right after becoming a zygote, it will immediately undergo meiosis to produce haploid spores. The multicellular adult form is also a haploid that will produce the gametes." – This process is also known as a: A. Isogamy B. Haplontic life cycle C. Haplodiplontic life cycle D. Oogamy
