Why are there more ferns than club mosses?
Because ferns are vascular plants
Are xylem in ferns?
Yes, ferns have xylem tissue. Xylem is responsible for transporting water and minerals from the roots to other parts of the plant, including the fronds (leaves) in ferns. It provides structural support and helps in maintaining the shape and structure of the plant.

What is a underground hairlike fibers of ferns?

Do ferns grow in the ground?
yes. Rhizomes are basically stems that run along the ground. They help roots support the height of the plant. They (ferns) require moist environments because the rhizomes can't reach far for water.
Explain why ferns live in moist environments even though they have vascular tissue?
This is because the plants relese spores into their surroundings,where they grow into gametophytes. When the gametophtes produce egg cells and sperm cells,there must be enough water available for fertilization. hope my answes correct i too was searching for a long time to find the answer, but when i read again {looks like i found it} ;)
