Q: Which generation of a plant is generally larger and longer-lived? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: One of the two generations of a plant's life cycle is typically dominant to the other generation.

Individuals in the nondominant generation, in contrast, may be very small and rarely seen. They may live in or on the dominant plant. Choices: - main generation - effective generation - alpha generation - dominant generation A:
