∙ 11y agoThey provide some evolutionary advantages:
1) The can remain dormant for days to years until favourable condition for germination.
2) The can be transported long distance by wind and animals.

∙ 10y agoSeed plants have evolved structures like roots, stems, and leaves that enable them to effectively absorb water and nutrients from the soil and conduct photosynthesis. Their seeds provide protection and nourishment for the embryo, allowing for efficient dispersal and survival in different environments. This adaptation allows seed plants to grow taller and compete better for sunlight compared to ferns and mosses, which lack specialized structures for efficient nutrient uptake and reproduction.

∙ 9y agoSeeded plants are the most successful terrestrial plant. This is due to the seed/ovary protecting the immature plant from harm, and the positive effects of pollination.

The first group of terrestrial plants were likely non-vascular plants, such as mosses and liverworts. These plants were among the earliest to colonize land, evolving from aquatic ancestors around 450 million years ago. They played a crucial role in forming the foundation for terrestrial ecosystems.
A terrestrial habitat is a type of habitat that is found on land, as opposed to in water or air. It includes various ecosystems, such as forests, deserts, grasslands, and mountains, where plants and animals have adapted to live on the land.
One of the first land plants to evolve was likely green algae, which transitioned from aquatic environments to terrestrial habitats around 450 million years ago. These plants laid the foundation for the development of more complex land plants such as mosses and ferns.
Unlike true mosses, club mosses have vascular tissue.

The first group of terrestrial plants were likely non-vascular plants, such as mosses and liverworts. These plants were among the earliest to colonize land, evolving from aquatic ancestors around 450 million years ago. They played a crucial role in forming the foundation for terrestrial ecosystems.
The four groups of terrestrial plants are bryophytes (mosses and liverworts), pteridophytes (ferns and their relatives), gymnosperms (conifers and cycads), and angiosperms (flowering plants). These groups vary in their reproductive structures and evolutionary history.
Plants that live in terrestrial ecosystems include trees, shrubs, grasses, and other vegetation that grow on land. These plants are adapted to living in soil and typically obtain nutrients and water from the ground. They play a crucial role in supporting terrestrial ecosystems by providing food, oxygen, and habitat for various organisms.
Cold-adapted plants and animals survive there, including penguins, seals, mosses, lichen, and many types of algae
They require moisture for fertilization to occur. Their sperm are flagellated.
Mosses are nonvascular plants.
Pioneer plants, such as mosses, are the first to colonize a barren area. Mosses are well-adapted to harsh conditions with their ability to grow in low-nutrient soils and tolerate extreme temperatures. They help in soil formation, reduce erosion, and provide a foundation for other plant species to establish in the ecosystem.
Over 650 species of flowering plants, mosses, lichens, fungi, and algae grow on Mt. McKinley. Only plants that have adapted to the harsh winters and short growing season can survive on Mt. McKinley.
Angiosperms (or flowering plants) are terrestrial plants and largely dominate terrestrial ecosystems.
because they are plants
Ferns are seedless vascular plants while mosses are just seedless.
