Question

(a) What is an alternation of generation? (b) Draw the life cycle of Monocystis showing haploid and diploid generations.

Answer

(a) Alternation of generation is a type of life cycle seen in some organisms, particularly in plants and algae. In this life cycle, the organism alternates between a haploid (n) and diploid (2n) phase in its life cycle. The haploid phase produces gametes through mitosis, while the diploid phase produces spores through meiosis.
