What is rootlike structure that anchor moss is called?
The root like structure of a moss are called "Rhizoids" and the root-like structures on a fern are called "Rhizomes", fungi roots are called mycorrhiza.
What are root-like filaments called?
Rhizoids
What plants get water and nutrients from rhizoids?
many trees have rhizoids connected to their roots ----------------- Basically all vascular plants have rhizoids (also called root hairs) They also serve as a support structure. Fungi also have them as do mosses and liverworts.
What is the scientific name for root hair cell?
Rhizoids
What is A root like structure that anchors moss?
Mosses are small green plants growing in dense clusters in damp, shady places. Mosses can look like a green carpet. It will grow on fallen logs and at the base of trees or in shady areas. A moss plant body has no roots and has tiny cellular threads that serve as anchors. The structures look like a stem, root or a leaf although the "leaves" of the moss are only thin sheets of cells, usually a single layer.

What is a root like system of threads which supply moss with water and nutrients?
That would be the rhizoids.
What is the structures which take the place of a root?
rhizoids
What is the scientific name for root hair cell?
Rhizoids
What function of the root-like rhizoids at the base of the plant perform?
The rhizoids that can be found at the base of certain plants utilize a capillary action to absorb nutrients and water for the soil they are in by moving them upward so that they can be absorbed.
How are nonvascular plants attached to the soil?
Nonvascular plants, for instance, the mosses, have root-like structures called rhizoids used to attach themselves to soil, trees, rocks and other structures.

Are rhizoids stems?
No, rhizoides are unicellular structures of lower plants. These are meant for absorption and anchorage, like root hairs in higher plants.
why are the rhizoids of mosses not considered as true roots?
Rhizoids appear to be root like as they do fullfil the role of griping the plant to the ground stone,branch etc But as they don't fullfil the water and nutrients absorption role like roots that's why they were not considered as true roots
