Dominant sporophyte of angiosperms?
No. Only in bryophytes (mosses, hornworts, and liverworts) is the gametophyte dominant. In advanced plants, the sporophyte is dominant. The gametophyte in angiosperms is a tiny part buried w/in the flower. Hope this helps.
Does a non flowering plant does not bear fruits but makes its own food?
Yes many of them for examples all algae, bryophytes, pteridopytes and gymnosperms make their own food.
Why aren't bryophytes considered as true plants?
Because they do not have the vascular tissues. Xylem and phloem.
What structure is found in plants but not in animal cells that carries out photosynthesis?
The chloroplast. It contains chlorophyll that captures sunlight and turns it into glucose.
What are basic structural differences between bryophytes and vascular plants?
Bryophytes are land plants that are non-vascular plants. Most do not have special structures for the transport of water. If they do contain specialized structure for tranportation of water, they do not contain lignin, so they are not considered true vascular plants. They are mosses, hornworts, and liverworts. Vascular plants contain lignified tissues (xylem) for transporting water and spcialized non-lignified tissue (phloem) to conduct products of photosynthesis. They iclude clubmosses, horsetails, ferns, and gymnosperms (including conifers), and angiosperms (flowering plants).
Are bryophytes the only plants having a dominant gametophyte stage in their lifecycle?
Plato: True
Did thomas engelmann use bryophytes in his studies of how plants use light for photosynthesis?
yes
Compare and contrast bryophytes and tracheophytes?
bryophytes are non vascular plants, they are small and are ecologically persistant, these plants do not form xylem tissue ever tracheophytes are vascular plants, and are composed of xylem and pholem tissues, they are seedless plants and are the very dominant land plants including trees and flowering plants.
Which part of croton plants carries out photosynthesis?
stem
What is the pigment in it that does photosynthesis?
From what i remember, chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants that carries out the process of photosynthesis.

What is the dominant phase of the bryophyte life cycle?
Bryophytes or Moss plants life cycle goes with two stages. The two stages are the haploid (gametophyte) and the diploid (sporophyte) which is the dominant stage.
Are bryophytes the simplest group of plant?
Bryophytes are the simplest land plants because they lack vascular tissues and are usually 1 to 2 cm in height and they need water for their reproductioin and they live in damp places and in them gametophyte generation is dominant.
What is the dominant generation of Bryophytes?
In vascular plants, the principal generation phase is the sporophyte, which is usually diploid with two sets of chromosomes per cell. By contrast, the principal generation phase in non-vascular plants is usually the gametophyte, which is haploid with one set of chromosomes per cell.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_plants
Are plants the only organism that carries out photosynthesis?
no .some organisms like euglena and algae etc., also do photosynthesis
