Question

place the following stages of the flowering plant life cycle in the correct order, beginning at the top with formation of the zygote.
instructions
gametes unite in fertilization to produce the zygote
male and female gametes are produced.
flowers produce microspores and megaspores.
the zygote undergoes mitosis to become the embryo then the mature sporophyte.
mitosis gives rise to the male and female gametophytes.

Explanation:

First, flowers produce microspores and megaspores. Then, mitosis gives rise to the male and female gametophytes. After that, male and female gametes are produced. Next, gametes unite in fertilization to produce the zygote. Finally, the zygote undergoes mitosis to become the embryo then the mature sporophyte.

Answer:

1. Flowers produce microspores and megaspores.
2. Mitosis gives rise to the male and female gametophytes.
3. Male and female gametes are produced.
4. Gametes unite in fertilization to produce the zygote.
5. The zygote undergoes mitosis to become the embryo then the mature sporophyte.
