I apologize for the confusion. The correct answer should actually be:
A flowering plant.
In flowering plants (angiosperms), the sporophyte stage is dominant and makes up the main structure of the plant. While ferns and mosses also have a sporophyte stage, flowering plants primarily exist in the sporophyte form throughout their life cycle. Thank you for your patience!
