Second generation produced in mosses is sporophyte on the gametophytic plant body.
What else can I help you with?
Which generation of mosses are the photosynthetic?
The first generation of mosses starts with germination of spores to develop into gametophyte. The male and female gametophytes produce anthridia and archegonia. Motile antherozoids are released from anthridia and make their way to archegonia through water. The egg inside archegonium is fertilized to form the zygote. The zygote develops into a sporophyte, which remain dependent on the gametophyte.
What is dominent generation in the mosses?
Gametophyte
Which reproductive structure is found in life cycles of mosses and ferns?
Sporangium
What generation is dominant in moss?
The dominant generation in mosses is the gametophyte generation. This is the photosynthetic, leafy structure that produces gametes for sexual reproduction. The sporophyte generation in mosses is much smaller and dependent on the gametophyte for nutrients.
What did Mendel's work first and second generation mean?
In a typical Mendel experiment, Mendel took two purebreeding lines (the parental generation) and crossed them to produce the 1st filial generation and sometimes would self cross these to produce the 2nd filial generation.
Do mosses have flowers?
Mosses do not have flowers; instead they bear capsules to produce spores.
Which of these is a seed plants horsetails mosses ferns conifers?
Horsetails produce seeds while mosses, ferns, and conifers produce spores.
Are mosses Autotrophic?
Yes. Autotrophs produce their own food, usually by photosynthesis. Mosses are green plants that can produce their own food from sunlight by photosynthesis.
What plants have a dominant gametophyte?
The sporophyte generation is dominant in ferns.
Liverworts mosses and ferns do not produce what?
Liverworts, mosses, and ferns do not produce flowers or seeds. They reproduce using spores instead.
What life cycle components appear only in mosses and ferns?
The gametophyte generation is more prominent and independent in mosses and ferns compared to seed plants. Also, the sporophyte generation in mosses and ferns is not as prominent or long-lived as in seed plants. Finally, mosses and ferns rely on water for fertilization, a characteristic not seen in seed plants.
Which plants do not produce flowers or seeds?
Mosses and ferns.
