- IDENTIFY: This refers to the haploid phase in the Polysiphonia life cycle.arrow_forward6) Classify the following as either Sexual or Asexual Reproduction. Give the specific type of asexual reproduction. a) A small piece of a cactus breaks off the plant, falls to the ground, and begins to grow. b) Pollen from a male poplar tree fertilizes sex cells on a female poplar tree. c) Two earthworms each produce sperm and eggs and fertilize each other. d) A flatworm is cut in half and grows into two flatworms.arrow_forward"An egg cell and a sperm cell will unite and undergo fertilization to form a diploid zygote. Right after becoming a zygote, it will immediately undergo meiosis to produce haploid spores. The multicellular adult form is also a haploid that will produce the egg and sperm." - This process is also known as a: Select the correct response(s): Haplodiplontic life cycle Isogamy Haplontic life cycle Oogamyarrow_forward
