3. What are the "two hallmarks" (p. 574) of alternation of generations? What two stages alternate, and when do mitosis and meiosis happen?
4. When the alternate generations look like the same organism, which term is used: heteromorphic, or isomorphic?
5. In mosses, which generation (gametophyte or sporophyte) is vegetatively dominant --that is, produces more greenery, stays green for a longer period, is more independent and self-feeding?
b. How is this shown in a "pie diagram" of the life cycle (fig 28.4)?
