What else can I help you with?
When the spores of some plants grow the new plants are called what?
There new plants are called gametophtes
Plants without vascular tissue to transport materials from one part of the plant to another?
Sporophytes
Why are sporophytes taller than gametophytes?
Sporophytes are typically taller than gametophytes because they are the dominant phase in the life cycle of plants, investing more energy in growth and reproduction. Sporophytes produce spores through meiosis, giving rise to new gametophytes, which are usually smaller and shorter-lived in comparison.
Which reproductive structure is found in life cycles of mosses and ferns?
Sporangium
Is bryophytes a plant?
Bryophyta is a group of plants having thalloid independent gametophytic plants and their sporophytes remain dependent on gametophytes. Examples are Riccia, Marchantia, Anthceros and mosses.
What are similaraties between angiosperms and gymnosperms?
Both bear seeds; both are vascular plants; Gametophytes in both groups are dependent on sporophytes
Are gametophyte better adapted to land environment?
Gametophytes are generally not as well adapted to land environments as sporophytes. While they play a crucial role in the life cycle of plants, particularly in non-vascular plants like mosses, they typically require moist conditions for reproduction and growth, as they rely on water for sperm mobility. In contrast, sporophytes, which are more dominant in vascular plants, have adaptations such as protective structures, roots, and the ability to produce seeds that allow them to thrive in a wider range of terrestrial environments. Thus, sporophytes are typically better suited for land life.
Plant spores are produced directly by?
Plant spores are produced directly by sporophytes through the process of sporogenesis. Spores are reproductive structures that can develop into new individuals without the need for fertilization. They are dispersed by various means, such as wind or water, to enable the propagation of plants.
What are sorephytes?
Sporophytes are gametes.
Where are a sexual spores formed?
Sporophytes.
What sturctures do sporophytes use in reproduction?
Spores.
What structures do sporophytes use in reproduction?
Spores.
