gametophytes
Ferns have a dominant sporophyte and a reduced gametophyte. As for moss, it depends on the type. If referring to mosses under the phylum Bryophyta (these are the nonvascular mosses) they have a dominant gametophyte. If referring to mosses under seedless vascular category, such as club mosses in the phylum Lycophyta, these plants have a dominant sporophyte and a reduced gametophyte.
Orange moss is a harmless moss that resides on trees. It is the color orange! You can even use it in cooking.
Yes, it is a producer, all moss are producers!_/\_*0*_
ANSWER:Algae
Moss is a plant, and that certain species of moss you are referring to needs lots of water.
gametophytes
Bryophytes or Moss plants life cycle goes with two stages. The two stages are the haploid (gametophyte) and the diploid (sporophyte) which is the dominant stage.
the dominant stage of a moss is haploid generation http://www.botany.ubc.ca/bryophyte/mossintro.html
The gametophyte stage of the moss life cycle is the most visible. The reason for this is because it contains chlorophyll.
Moss must grow close together and must have water to complete their life cycle. Gametophyte stage is dominant in the moss's life cycle where the eggs and sperm are produced. Mosses produce two kinds of gametes.
The life cycle of moss is as follows:Sperm and egg are fertilized and form a zygote. The zygote transforms into a gametophyte and then a sporophyte. It undergoes meiosis and grows to form moss.
It starts with spores, then young plant and last of all adult plant.
what effect does water have in the moss lifecycle
what effect does water have in the moss lifecycle
fertilization
The antheridium is the male sex organ of a moss, and the archegonium is the female sex organ. These two, when joined produce moss offspring. So, why is it important in the life cycle of a moss? It's because moss need them so that they can reproduce.
