Zygote of pteridophyte
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
(c) In pteridophytes, the zygote marks the beginning of the diploid phase. It does not undergo immediate reduction division (meiosis). Instead, it divides mitotically to form a multicellular, well-differentiated sporophyte, which is the dominant and independent stage of the life cycle.
