Solution

This plant is a sporophytic plant.

The plant shown in the picture above is a sporophystic plant as this would reproduce asexully. Visually, this could be said on the basis that this plant does not have flowers that are required for sexual reproduction by the formation of the pollens and egg cell to lead to the formation of zygote, so this will reproduce by formation of diplooid spores unlike gametophytes. Thus, due to lack of any flowers for sexual reproduction we can conclude that the plant shown above is a sporophytic plant.
