Answer:
A
Solution:
 List-I List-II
(a)Spirogyra(ii) It is a filamentous green alga, member of Thallophyta. The predominant phase is haploid free-living gametophyte. They show haplontic life cycle.
(b)Fern(iii)They are Pteridophyta members. The predominant plant body is diploid sporophyte alternating with reduced gametophyte called prothallus.They show diplo-haplontic life cycle.
(c)Funaria(iv)They are Bryophyta members. The gameotyphyte is dominant haploid, and leafy. They have alternating partially parasitic mutlicellular, diploid sporophyte generations in their life cycle. They show haplo-diplontic life cycle.
(d)Cycas(i)All Gymnosperms are dominant diploid sporophyte vascular plant, with highly reduced male or female gametophyte. They have highly reduced gametophytic, haploid generation and diplontic life cycle.
