Which statement about alternation of generations in bryophytes is incorrect?

Correct answer D. Both the gametophyte and sporophyte are haploid generations, so they can produce haploid gametes that restore the diploid number on fertilisation

Explanation

In bryophytes the gametophyte is haploid but the sporophyte is diploid and produces spores by meiosis, so saying both generations are haploid is wrong.
