Seed plants which first appeared in the Paleozoic Era?
Gymnosperms.
Why is the wind a better dispersal for spores than for seeds?
Spores are lighter (make that less dense).
Why are spores covered by hard protective coat?
The spores are protected by hard protective coat because the environment the spores might land, is not that very friendly. And the function of that covering is to protect the spore.
Which of the two main plant groups do mosses and liverworts belong to?
Mosses are bryophytes. Liverworts (aka hepatics), while referred to as bryophytes, are called marchantiophytes.Both of these groups are non-vascular plants, along with the hornworts.
What is the purpose of a spore?
Its the reproductive part of a fungi or a pteridophyta, fern. Might also be the reproductive part of other primitive plants, perhaps hornworts, liverworts, or horsetails also produce spores, I'm not sure, but I know for a fact that ferns do it, as well as all fungi. A spore is like a very small seed, produced in much greater quantity, without the resilliency that seeds have (no seed coat or extra nutrients for the growing organism).
Why is real image not formed by concave lens?
how spores of mosses differ from spores of liverworts
Are liverworts vascular plants?
Liverworts are not vascular plants. The Liverwort is a very primitive plant like moss and the slime mold. Liverwort reproduces using spores.
What type of plants are mosses and liverworts?
Liverworts, hornworts, and moss are non-vascular plants. Another name for them is bryophyte. They do not produce flowers or seeds, instead they reproduce with spores.
What type of plant are liverworts hornworts and moss?
Liverworts, hornworts, and moss are non-vascular plants. Another name for them is bryophyte. They do not produce flowers or seeds, instead they reproduce with spores.
Is a liverworts a seed plant or a seedless plant?
Liverwort is seedless plant. it bears the spores. It is less evolved plant.
Are bryophytes seedless?
Bryophytes are the most simple land plants. They are nonvascular, seedless, and they reproduce through spores. These plants include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts.
How are spores and seeds the same?
They are not the same, however they fulfill the same purpose which is to propagate. Seeds are produced by sexual reproduction while spores are a type of asexual reproduction most common in fungi. Spores are a used by many phylum like liverworts, hornworts, mosses etc.
Which plants are seedless?
There are plants with seeds and also those which produce spores or gametes for reproduction. Ferns, horsetails, mosses, and liverworts do not produce flowers or grow from seeds.
Does bryophytes have flowers?
Bryophytes (aka embryophytes) is a term used for mosses, hornworts and liverworts. These plants are small, green, rootless, and they reproduce by spores instead of seeds. Daffodils are flowering herbaceous perennials reproduce by seeds. Daffodils are NOT bryophytes.
Which plants grow with spores?
Ferns, algae, spikemosses, horsetails, and quillworts all reproduce asexually through the use of spores. Spores must risk landing on a favorable spot for germination in order to be successful.Note: fungi reproduce using spores, but they are not plants being neither plant nor animal. also fungi can produce both sexual and asexual spores.
Liverworts mosses and ferns do not produce what?
Mosses and ferns do not produce seeds; they are referred to as "seedless" plants, instead producing easily-damaged spores in great numbers for reproduction.
Do nonvascular plants come from seeds or spores?
Non-vascular plants reproduce from spores. Non-vascular plants are mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Some non-vascular plants have male plants and female plants. Others are able to have both sex organs on the same plant.
