What stage is dominant in ferns?
the Sporophyte generation
What does the sporophyte grow out of?
In moss, where the sporophyte grows directly out of the top of the gametophyte.
What generation is dominant in both gymnosperms and angiosperms?
gymnosperm- sporophyte angiosperm- sporophyte
In a moss the gametophyte stage depends on the sporophyte stage for nutrients.?
The sporophyte stage depends on the gameophytestage because the gameophyte stage has a photosynthic stageand because the sporophyte stage lives shortly.
How do nonphotosynthetic organisms obtain the carbon molecules necessary for life?
From dead and decay matter.
What structures do photosynthetic cells have that nonphotosynthetic cells don't?
The nonphotosynthetic cells don't have the chloroplasts because that organelle is what does the photosynthesis
What stage is dominant in ferns?
the Sporophyte generation
Gametophyte and sporophyte?
Gametophyte-haploid Sporophyte-diploid
What energy sources do some nonphotosynthetic autotrophs use?
Fixed energy
What does the sporophyte grow out of?
In moss, where the sporophyte grows directly out of the top of the gametophyte.
How have the sporophyte and gametophyte changed as plants have evolved?
The gametophyte has become smaller, and the sporophyte has become larger. To begin with main plant body was gametophytic and sporophyte was dependent on it. Later on, as the evolution progressed, both gametophyte and sporophyte became independent and ultimatly gametophyte became dependent on sporophyte.
What is a example of sporophyte?
Three examples of a sporophyte are Polypodium, mosses, and a pine tree.
What generation is dominant in both gymnosperms and angiosperms?
gymnosperm- sporophyte angiosperm- sporophyte
In a moss the gametophyte stage depends on the sporophyte stage for nutrients.?
The sporophyte stage depends on the gameophytestage because the gameophyte stage has a photosynthic stageand because the sporophyte stage lives shortly.
How do nonphotosynthetic organisms obtain the carbon molecules necessary for life?
From dead and decay matter.
Why is the seta and capsule known as the sporophyte generation?
The cap like structure on the capsule of the sporophyte generation in a bryophyte is the operculum. The structure that covers the capsule of the sporophyte in bryophytes is calyptra.
Does gametophyte generation depends on sporophyte generation in ferns?
It does not depending on sporophytes generation
