Moss has many different cousins and it has many different nutrients in it. But, many people do not have a clue as to what nutrients are in this twisty, gray plant. In-fact, some scientists are still trying to figure out what the mysteries are to this secretive object.
It's gametophyte
yes it is. (in the tundra it is)
They are called rhizoids.
Moss is a plant, and that certain species of moss you are referring to needs lots of water.
Mosses like moisture, shade and generally prefer an acidic soil (5.0 - 6.0). Partial to full shade is essential. Hot afternoon sun will destroy a patch of moss in no time. Did you know that moss has no roots? It has little filaments that allow it to take up nutrients, but no true roots, so it will dry out even faster than groundcover plants. So in short, moss gets it's water from it's filaments taking in water from it's surroundings: dew, rain, ground water
No, moss is not slippery.

Like any other plants, it requires nutrients and moistness to grow.
Moss contains rhizoids that anchor the moss and absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
yes it is. (in the tundra it is)
Moss is non-vascular. Because a moss is non-vascular, it relies on osmosis and diffusion to receive mainly oxygen and carbon dioxide from the air for nutrients.
Yes, they do.
The sphagnum moss covers the pond water with a spongy surface. This type of moss had to adapt how it located and obtained nutrients in order to live in the Taiga Rainforest.
That would be the rhizoids.
Rhizoids are thin, rootlike structures that anchor the moss and help absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
The reason why it's easy for moss to absorb waster is because of a part of the moss called Rhizoid it takes place of the roots and stems and obtains the water and nutrients under the surface.
