Spores are what moss [Bryophyta division] grows from. Spores need damp, shaded environments in which to grow. The reason lies in the inability of moss to stop water loss in high light, high heat, high evaporation environments.

Does moss grow on a clean surface?

Moss grows anywhere it can. If an indoor surface is clean moss won't grow on it, but outdoors there's no such thing as a clean surface, so moss will grow there if the climatic conditions are right.

Is moss physical or chemical weathering?

Moss does not directly cause physical or chemical weathering itself. However, moss can indirectly contribute to chemical weathering by producing organic acids that can break down rocks over time. Additionally, moss can also contribute to physical weathering by helping to break apart rocks as their roots grow into cracks and crevices.


Moss dry sunny sky moss wet rain we'll get?

The given phrase seems to be a mnemonic device for remembering the weather patterns associated with moss growth. Moss tends to dry out and become more brittle under sunny skies, while it thrives and becomes more vibrant when wet from rain. This mnemonic could be helpful for someone studying botany or ecology to understand the environmental conditions that affect moss growth.
