Fig. 3.2 shows the life cycle of a fern. The life cycle of a fern has some similarities and some differences compared with the life cycles of other plants.
The letters represent processes that occur during the life cycle.
The haploid stages of the life cycle are represented by (n).
The diploid stages of the life cycle are represented by (2 n).
