life cycle of the briophytes, pteridophytes and spermatophytes Explanation: The sporophyte was the dominant phase of the life cycle of these early Pteridophytes. (http://scitec.uwichill.edu.bb/bcs/bl14apl/pter1.htm) http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/glossary/gloss6/evol.html spermatophyte NOUN : A seed-bearing plant, such as a conifer or a flowering plant. (http://www.bartleby.com/61/90/S0629000.html) spermatophyte also called Seed Plant, any of the flowering plants (angiosperms) and conifers and allies (gymnosperms). An earlier classification considered these plants subgroups of the Spermatophyta, a taxonomic unit no longer generally considered valid.
