Expert Answer

Gametophyte is the gamete-bearing individual or phase in the life cycle of a plant having alternation of generations. It is the haploid phase which produces gametes by mitosis in order to produce a zygote (from which the sporophyte arises). It is the dominant form in certain plants like bryophytes.
