The Life Cycle of Fern Plants

The video explains the plant life cycle involving two generations: the diploid sporophyte and the haploid gametophyte. The sporophyte produces spores through meiosis, which grow into gametophytes. These gametophytes produce gametes that fuse to form a zygote, developing into a new sporophyte. This cycle, known as alternation of generations, involves alternating between diploid and haploid stages.

Describe how gametes are produced in the gametophyte generation.
