Is there another name for sporophytes?

Answer 1

Yes, sporophytes are sometimes referred to as "diploid phase" or "diploid generation" in the context of the plant life cycle. The term "sporophyte" specifically denotes the stage in the plant life cycle that produces spores through meiosis, and it is the diploid phase that arises from the fertilization of gametes (the haploid generation). However, it is primarily known by the name "sporophyte."
