what does sporophyte produce
In flowering plants the gametophytes are very reduced in size, and are represented by the pollen and the embryo sac. The sporophyte produces spores (hence the name) by meiosis, a process also known as reduction division that reduces the number of chromosomes in each spore mother cell by half.The resulting meiospores develop into a gametophyte.n flowering plants the gametophytes are very reduced in size, and are represented by the pollen and the embryo sac.
