    Street dancers in Dagupan depicting the bountiful harvest of bangus. In the city of Dagupan in Pangasinan, Philippines, they host an annual Bangus Festival. The festival was initially a bangus harvest or ‘Gilon’ conceptualized in the 1990s by Mayor Al Fernandez. Now, the festival has become an extravagant event including street dance ...

  3. Embryophyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryophyte

    Genera such as Rhynia have a similar life-cycle but have simple tracheids and so are a kind of vascular plant. [44] It was assumed that the gametophyte dominant phase seen in bryophytes used to be the ancestral condition in terrestrial plants, and that the sporophyte dominant stage in vascular plants was a derived trait.

  4. Biological life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_life_cycle

    In biology, a biological life cycle (or just life cycle when the biological context is clear) is a series of stages of the life of an organism, that begins as a zygote, often in an egg, and concludes as an adult that reproduces, producing an offspring in the form of a new zygote which then itself goes through the same series of stages, the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marchantiophyta

    The Marchantiophyta (/ m ɑːr ˌ k æ n t i ˈ ɒ f ə t ə,-oʊ ˈ f aɪ t ə / ⓘ) are a division of non-vascular land plants commonly referred to as hepatics or liverworts.Like mosses and hornworts, they have a gametophyte-dominant life cycle, in which cells of the plant carry only a single set of genetic information.

    Diagram showing the alternation of generations between a diploid sporophyte (bottom) and a haploid gametophyte (top) A sporophyte (/ ˈ s p ɔːr. ə ˌ f aɪ t /) is the diploid multicellular stage in the life cycle of a plant or alga which produces asexual spores.

  7. Bryopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryopsis

    The life history patterns of Bryopsis are highly variable, potentially the most diverse among any genus of green algae. [12] Bryopsis have highly variable life history patterns, even within species. The life cycle of Bryopsis has two stages alternating between an erect macroscopic stage which form macrothalli and a small branched phase which ...

  8. Gymnosperm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gymnosperm

    The life cycle of a gymnosperm involves alternation of generations, with a dominant diploid sporophyte phase, and a reduced haploid gametophyte phase, which is dependent on the sporophytic phase. [3] The term "gymnosperm" is often used in paleobotany to refer to (the paraphyletic group of) all non-angiosperm seed plants.

    The plant then flowers, producing fruits and seeds before it finally dies. There are far fewer biennials than either perennial plants or annual plants. [5] Biennials do not always follow a strict two-year life cycle and the majority of plants in the wild can take 3 or more years to fully mature.
