The correct answer is option C, that is, both the organisms generate haploid spores and exhibit diploid and haploid stages. Â
The sporophyte (of the haploid stage) in pteridophytes produce spores. The diploid stage in pteridophytes may take place when two of the spores combines and give rise to a prothallus, that is, the diploid stage of the pteridophytes. Â
In fungi, the production of spores takes place by sporangiophores (haploid stage). At a certain stage, two horizontal hyphae among the two species of fungi, may amalgamate at the tips and produce a zygote (diploid) via plasmogamy and karyogamy. Â
Both organisms exhibit a diploid stage and are only able to reproduce asexually.
