Ferns have traditionally been grouped in the Class Filices, but modern classifications assign them their own phylum or division in the plant kingdom, called Pteridophyta, also known as Filicophyta.

What phylum does cactus belong?
filicinophyta
What are the characteristics filicinophyta?
Filicinophyta all have roots, leaves and stems but they don't have true xylems and phloems. Spores are produced on the undersides of their leaves and these leaves tend to be divided.
What is the advance characteristic of filicinophyta compared to lycopodiophyta?
Filicinophyta all have roots, leaves and stems but they don't have true xylems and phloems. Spores are produced on the undersides of their leaves and these leaves tend to be divided.
Why subphylum Filicinophyta sp more advance thansubphylum Lycopodiophyta sp?
because it is beautiful
What is the advanced characteristics of subphylum filicinophyta than subphylum lycopodiophyta?
Subphylum Filicinophyta (ferns) have large, complex leaves called fronds, while subphylum Lycopodiophyta (club mosses) have smaller leaves and simpler structures. Ferns also have a more advanced vascular system that includes true roots, stems, and leaves, whereas club mosses have simpler, dichotomously branching stems. Additionally, ferns produce spores in structures called sporangia, which are typically clustered in groups called sori, while club mosses have strobili that contain spore-producing structures.
What does the name fern mean?
Any tracheophyte plant of the phylum Filicinophyta, having roots, stems, and fronds and reproducing by spores formed in structures (sori) on the leaves.
Identify the six phylums?
cnidarine, arthropods, sponge, mollusk, worms,lichen
What two phyla contain multicellular organisms that are in kingdom Protista?
One is rhodophyta, which surprisingly includes kelps. Another is chlorophyta, which is made of colonies of organisms. This is the closest you could get to two phylums of multicellular organisms in kingdom Protista.
What advance characteristic of sub-phylum Filicinophyta?
One advanced characteristic of the sub-phylum Filicinophyta is the presence of well-developed vascular tissues that allow for efficient transport of water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. Another characteristic is the presence of megaphylls, which are large, flattened leaves with a complex vascular system. Additionally, Filicinophytes exhibit homosporous or heterosporous reproduction, with most species producing spores for reproduction.
Do ferns belong to the same phylum as moss?
This article is about the group of pteridophyte plants.

They have stems, leaves, and roots like other vascular plants. Ferns reproduce via spores and have neither seeds nor flowers.By far the largest group of ferns is the leptosporangiate ferns, but ferns as defined here (also called monilophytes) include horsetails, whisk ferns,marattioid ferns, and ophioglossoid ferns. The term pteridophyte also refers to ferns and a few other seedless vascular plants (see classification section below).Ferns first appear in the fossil record 360 million years ago in the Carboniferous but many of the current families and species did not appear until roughly 145 million years ago in the early Cretaceous (after flowering plants came to dominate many environments).Ferns are not of major economic importance, but some are grown or gathered for food, as ornamental plants, for remediating contaminated soils, and have been the subject of research for their ability to remove some chemical pollutants from the air. Some are significant weeds. They also play a role in mythology, medicine, and art.
