In botany terms the difference between gonophore and sporosac
is that
gonophore is an elongated receptacle above the corolla to elevate the stamens and carpels while
sporosac is a hydrozoan reproductive zooid or simple form of gonophore which does not become medusoid in form or structure.
In zoology terms the difference between gonophore and sporosac
is that
gonophore is a medusoid bud on a hydroid while
sporosac is an early or simple larval stage of trematode worms and some other invertebrates, which is capable of reproducing other
germ cells by asexual generation; a redia.
