Yes the spores are like seeds. They drop off of a fern and onto the ground and sooner or later they sprout and makes a new fern.
Spores are not like seeds. They lack a seed coat, endosperm and preformed embryonic parts. In addition spores give rise to the gametophyte generation and seeds give rise to the sporophyte generation.
Ferns and mosses do both reproduce by using spores BUT mosses have a reduced almost parasitic sporophyte generation which produces the spores. These spores will produces the gametophyte generation (the green leafy thing we see). The gametophyte produces the sex cells that fuse to make a zygote. This zygote then forms a new sporophyte.
With ferns the sporophyte generation is more dominant than the gametophyte. The leafy structure we see is the sporophyte.
What else can I help you with?
What kind of plants reproduce with spores and which kind of plants reproduce with seeds?
Plants belonging to bryophytes and Pteridophytes etc. reproduce with spores and thoseof gymnosperms and angiosperms reproduce with seeds.
How do fern reproduce?
on the under side of the leaves, there are brown circles, those are the pollen/seeds.
Is white moss a flowering plant?
No, white moss is not a flowering plant. Mosses belong to a group of small, non-flowering plants that reproduce through spores instead of seeds. They are simple plants that lack true roots, stems, and leaves.
Does monocots have spores?
Some monocots, crabgrass, send out rhizomes for plant reproduction.
Example of non flowering plant?
An example of a non-flowering plant is a fern. Ferns reproduce through spores rather than flowers and seeds. They are known for their distinctive, feathery fronds and are commonly found in moist, shady environments.
Does flowering plant reproduce by seed or spores?
Flowering plants reproduce by seeds
How do non-flowering plants reproduce?
Many non-flowering plants (such as ferns) reproduce by means of spores; the other major non-flowering plant group are gymnosperms, which produce seed, but in cones not flowers
What purpose do spores serve?
They are in spores bags and they help to reproduce for the non-flowering plants
What are facts about nonflowering plants?
reproduce from spores .simpler than flowering plants.
What are some characteristics of non-flowering plants?
Non-flowering plants, such as ferns and mosses, reproduce through spores rather than seeds. They do not produce flowers, fruits, or seeds, and instead rely on other methods such as spores, cones, or vegetative propagation for reproduction. These plants typically have simpler reproductive structures compared to flowering plants.
What kind of plants reproduce with spores and which kind of plants reproduce with seeds?
Plants belonging to bryophytes and Pteridophytes etc. reproduce with spores and thoseof gymnosperms and angiosperms reproduce with seeds.
What do non-flowering plants make?
Nonflowering plants make spores or reproduce by budding.
What are non-flowering plants that do not reproduce by spores?
Non-flowering plants that do not reproduce by spores include ferns and gymnosperms like conifers. These plants reproduce through seeds rather than spores, with ferns producing seeds in structures called sori and gymnosperms producing seeds in cones.
Does ixora reproduce by spores?
No, ixora does not reproduce by spores. Ixora is a flowering plant that reproduces through sexual reproduction involving the fusion of male and female gametes. Spores are typically produced by non-flowering plants such as ferns and mosses as part of their reproductive cycle.
Why are moss non flowering plants?
Moss plants are a very old species. Flowering plants developed after moss was created. Moss reproduce by spores.
What do you mean by flowering and non flowering plants?
A flower is the organ of reproduction of the higher plants or Spermaphytes. Non flowering plants such as ferns and mosses reproduce by spores therefore do not require flowers.
Is moss a seed plant that produces flowers?
No, they are not. Mosses are non-flowering plants that reproduce by spores.
