Prothallus (gametophyte) gives rise to fern plant (sporophyte) without fertilization. It is
-
- apospory
- apogamy
- parthenocarpy
- parthenogenesis
Correct Option: B
When prothallus of a fern gives rise to sporophyte directly from somatic cell without forming gametes it is apogamy. Such type of sporophyte is haploid in nature. Development of gametophyte directly from sporophyte without meiosis and without forming spores, is apospory.
