CThe plant is a moss, and the sporophyte is its dominant phase.

DThe plant is a fern, and sporophyte is its dominant phase.

Verified Answer :

The statement that best describes a characteristic that distinguishes animals from protists is letter D. It states that most animals are multicellular, and most protists are unicellular.

The best conclusion about the life cycle of this plant is that the plant is a moss, and the sporophyte is its dominant phase. The answer would be letter C.

Answer:
