Sporangia form underneath the fronds, and haploid spores form in the sporangia. These spores are released and germinate into haploid gametophytes.

bioepic · Answer

The sporophyte produces spores (hence the name) by meiosis, a process also known as "reduction division" that reduces the number of chromosomes in each spore mother cell by half. The resulting meiospores develop into a gametophyte.
