Correct answer is (c) (a) - (ii), (b) - (iii), (c) - (iv), (d) - (i)

List I		List II
a	Spirogyra	i	Dominant diploid sporophyte vascular plant, with highly reduced male or female gametophyte
b	Fern	ii	Dominant haploid free-living gametophyte
c	Funaria	iii	Dominant diploid sporophyte alternating with reduced gametophyte called prothallus
d	Cycas	iv	Dominant haploid leafy gametophyte alternating with partially dependent multicellular sporophyte
