The correct sequence of events in the life cycle of bryophytes is:
A. Fusion of antherozoid with egg.
B. Attachment of gametophyte to substratum.
C. Reduction division to produce haploid spores.
D. Formation of sporophyte.
E. Release of antherozoids into water.
Choose the correct answer from the option given below:Sequence is B -> E -> A -> D -> C.
In bryophytes, the gametophyte attaches to substratum via rhizoids (B); flagellated antherozoids are released into water (E); antherozoids fuse with egg in archegonium (A); zygote produces multicellular sporophyte (D); spore mother cells in sporophyte capsule undergo reduction division to produce spores (C).
