Explanation:

In alternation of generations in plants, the gametophyte generation is initiated by meiosis which produces haploid spores that develop into gametophytes. The sporophyte generation is initiated by fertilization, where the fusion of gametes (sperm and egg) forms a diploid zygote that develops into a sporophyte. Bryophytes and ferns, when reproducing sexually, require meiosis to produce gametes and fertilization to form a new sporophyte.

Answer:

1. Meiosis, Fertilization
2. Meiosis, Fertilization
