What is a seed like object that falls fom a fern and will grow into a new fern?

The seed-like object that falls from a fern is called a spore. Unlike seeds from flowering plants, ferns reproduce using spores, which are typically produced in clusters on the undersides of their fronds. When the spores are released and find a suitable environment, they can germinate and grow into a new fern through a process called alternation of generations.

A tiny cell that can grow into a new fern?

The tiny reproductive cells of ferns are known as spores. These sling to the underside of the fern's leaves until they are ripe, at which time they are released. Some fall to the ground near the fern while others blow on the wind and start new ferns in other locations.


Does the fern have seeds?

How should I go about transplanting ferns in pots?

To transplant ferns in pots, carefully remove the fern from its current pot, gently loosen the roots, and place it in a new pot with fresh soil. Water the fern thoroughly after transplanting and place it in a location with indirect sunlight. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged to help the fern adjust to its new pot.


What does Fern prothallia sporangia mean?

Fern prothallia are small heart-shaped structures that produce reproductive structures called sporangia. Sporangia are responsible for producing spores in ferns, which can develop into new fern plants.
