What life cycle components appear only in mosses and ferns?
The gametophyte generation is more prominent and independent in mosses and ferns compared to seed plants. Also, the sporophyte generation in mosses and ferns is not as prominent or long-lived as in seed plants. Finally, mosses and ferns rely on water for fertilization, a characteristic not seen in seed plants.
What do ferns and mosses have in common?
Mosses and Ferns both reproduce using spores instead of seeds or flowers. Mosses and Ferns are both plants. Mosses and Ferns are both made up of cells. Mosses and Ferns both photosynthesize.
How do the size of moss moss fern plants differ?
Ferns are vascular plants. They contain vascular strands that allow water and nutrients to be transferred throughout the the plant. Mosses lack the vascular strands(or tissue) causing the mosses to have a much smaller stature because they are not able to transfer nutrients very well.
Why cant ferns grow taller than mosses?
Because mosses rely on diffusion to transport water up the cells and do not have the vessels found in plant cells that allow water to be carried upwards.
Ferns are more advanced than mosses because mosses lack which structure found in ferns?
Ferns are considered more advanced than mosses because they have vascular tissues like xylem and phloem, which mosses lack. Vascular tissues allow ferns to transport water and nutrients more efficiently throughout the plant, enabling them to grow taller and have more complex structures. This gives ferns an evolutionary advantage over mosses in terms of size and complexity.
Mosses and ferns are reproduce by what insted of seeds?
I believe mosses and ferns release spores that become other mosses and ferns later on.
What do mosses lack that ferns have?
Mosses lack vascular tissues, such as xylem and phloem, which are present in ferns. This absence limits mosses in their ability to transport water and nutrients efficiently, restricting their size and habitat. Additionally, ferns have true roots, stems, and leaves, while mosses have simpler structures, relying on diffusion for water and nutrient absorption.

What plants live in fresh water?
mosses, fissidens, java ferns, and pellia
What trait do ferns have that mosses do not?
Mosses are non-vascular plants whereas ferns are vascular. In ferns Sporophyte is dominant but in mosses gametophyte is dominant generation. Ferns have definite roots but in mosses leaves and roots are mostly false.
How are Horsetails ferns and club mosses different from mosses?
Angiosperms have flowers, fruits and seeds. However ferns, horsetails, and club mosses do not have either of these.
