Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Is the archegonium diploid or haploid? The archegonium is a haploid structure.
Detailed explanation-2: -Once fertilized, the embryo develops into the sporophyte, which derives its nutrition from the gametophyte through specialized transfer cells. Once mature, spore mother cells undergo meiosis forming haploid spores within the capsule, which can be dispersed locally or travel airborne over great distances.
