Q. What is the metagenesis? What are the other names of this procedure?
Metagenesis is thekind of life cycle in which there are two different forms of individuals of the same species, one haploid and the other diploid. In one of these stages fecundated gametes give birth to the zygote that then develops into the other form and gametogenesis occurs. Metagenesis is also calledas alternation of generations or as diplobiont life cycle (All plants, for instance, present metagenesis.)
