description

In plants, sprophytes have diploid (2n) cells, and mature individuals divide by meiosis to produce haploid (n) spores. The relationship between gametophyte and sprophyte varies among different groups of plants and algae. For more information, look up "alternation of generations". In many algae, the sporophyte is the dominant generation.
