Biol. 2309 Plants and People Plant Reproduction From Fertilized Egg Cell to Flowering Plant Plant Reproduction Plants can reproduce through: 1. Asexual reproduction results in plants that are genetically identical to the parent plant 2. Sexual reproduction Layering Sexual Reproduction sexual reproduction produces variable offspring creating diversity and variation among populations It is important for plants as it provides ________________ to the progeny that helps in better survival and helps it to gain its own uniqueness within the species. Alternation of Generation The Reproductive Lives of Nonvascular Plants - Video Alternation of Generations alternation of generations describes a plant's life cycle as it alternates between a multicellular haploid phase, or generation and a multicellular diploid phase the haploid generation in plants produces gametes, or sex cells and is called the gametophyte generation the diploid phase produces ________________ and is called the sporophyte generation.
