What categories has the most species a Angiosperms b Gymnosperms c Conifers d mosses e ferns?
angiosperms
What plant does not have flowers?
Ferns, mosses and gymnosperms
Why do you think ferns are in a lesson with gymnosperms rather than in a lesson with mosses?
Because ferns (Pteridophyta) and gymnosperms are part of the larger category of vascular plants (Tracheophyta) and share common features that mosses lack. Perhaps also because of the spurious notion that "seed ferns" (Pteridospermatophyta), the ancestors of the gymnosperms, evolved from ferns. In fact, "seed ferns" are a large, heterogeneous category of plants which are generally believed to be only distantly related to true ferns.
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.
How are ferns horsetails and club mosses different from mosses?

What is tracheopytes?
a tracheophyte is a vascular plant which is capable of conducting water, minerals and photosynthetic products through the plant. This includes conifers, gymnosperms, angiosperms, club mosses and ferns.
How are club mosses and ferns similar?
Club mosses (Phylum Lycopodophyta) and horsetails (Phylum Equisetophyta) are similar to ferns (Phylum Pteridophyta) in that they; - do not produce seeds, only spores - have stems that are unstrengthened by wood (evolved first in the more advanced gymnosperms) - have a dominant sporophyte generation - do have vascular tissue (not as advanced as seed plants but there nonetheless) - do not produce flowers (flowers evolved first in angiosperms)
Is moss plant angiosperm?
No, mosses (Bryophyta) are NOT angiosperms. Angiosperms, or flowering plants, do not include mosses, liverworts, hornworts, ferns or fern relatives, club mosses, or gymnosperms (e.g. conifers).
What are five examples of a vascular plant?
gymnosperms,angiosperms,horsetails,ferns,and ginko
How is seed formation in a conifer different than in a flowering plant?
At this level of taxonomy, there are gymnosperms and angiosperms. The gymnosperms have 'naked seed'. (Hence the gymno part of the name)The angiosperms have an ovary for producing seed, in conjunction with pollen.Earlier taxonomy has the ferns, mosses, and the non-vascular plants, seaweeds, and in New Zealand we have a a few species of Tmesipteris. These early plants do not have flowers, but the ferns at least have sexual reproduction.
What is the reproduction organ of a plant called?
For angiosperms: Flowers For gymnosperms: Cones For ferns: Spore
Name 4 broads groups in which plant kingdom is divided?
Non-vascular plants (mosses and their relatives), Seedless vascular plants (ferns and their relatives), Gymnosperms (cone-bearing plants), and Angiosperms (flowering plants)
