sorialso sporangiaSori are the structures on the underside of fronds in which the spores of ferns are produced.
Sporangia
No generally ferns have spores that can grow on the underside of the fronds
yes, it does
Fern leaves are called fronds.
Fern leaves are called fronds. When they first emerge and are tightly curled, they are called fiddleheads because they look like the top end of a violin. Fronds.
The leaves of ferns are called fronds. As a young frond unwinds and opens, it is called a fiddlehead. The regular fronds are called trophophylls. The fronds that produce spores are called sporophylls.
The compound large leaves of ferns and Cycads are called fronds.
The leaves of ferns are called fronds. As a young frond unwinds and opens, it is called a fiddlehead. The regular fronds are called trophophylls. The fronds that produce spores are called sporophylls.
Spores are reproductive systems for ferns. They are dispersed and can survive for extended periods of time in unfavorable conditions. Two gametes fuse together to create a sporophyte which soon develops into a fern. Spores are important to ferns as they prevent their kind from extinction.
Interesting that I have the very same question. It has been no fronds produced this whole Spring season that have any foliage. Only barren fuzzy stems have been produced, and it is already June 22.
Ferns reproduce through spores, which are tiny single-celled structures produced by specialized structures called sporangia on the underside of their fronds. When conditions are right, the spores are released and can grow into new fern plants under suitable environmental conditions. Ferns do not produce seeds like flowering plants.
