Question
Chapter 11.4, Problem 4R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The diagram showing both the diplontic and haplontic life cycles, and the haploid and diploid generations.
Introduction:
The life cycle of complex organisms involves sexual reproduction. In sexual reproduction, the ploidy changes. This means that the haploid and diploid stages are involved alternatively in the life cycle of many organisms. The life cycles are generally divided into three main categories, the diplontic and haplontic life cycle, and alternation of generation.
