The gametophyte stage which is multicellular is used to produce gametes to perform the reproduction of plant to produce zygotes.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the reproduction procedure of plant generation, the multicellular stage of haploid or the gametophytes through the mitosis procedure, makes gametes which helps in producing zygote.
