What are non-edible plants?
Plants that are classified as "Non-seed plants," don't use seeds as reproduction. You might wonder then "How do they reproduce?" The first way, which doesn't need so much explaining, is through the roots. Some plants create "Suckers" from roots which may raise high above the ground, often when the soil above them has eroded away. When these "Suckers" grow big enough they separate and create more. Alot of trees that make seeds also do this, such as Elm, Cherry trees, Birches, etc. A good example of a non-seed plant (And my most popular decorative plant inmy Grandma's Garden) that does this is the "Birds of Paradise" (Heliconia is the latin name) which creates more from around its roots. It looks much like a banana tree as it ages and the big broad leaves begin to cut on the sides. The second type of non-seed plant might be the ones that create spores. What is the difference between seeds and spores? Well for one, spores are generally microscopic in size, and are unicellular, meaning that they only have one cell per spore. Seeds have several or even many. Spores generally depart their "Mother" with no food reserves, and seeds normally have alot of food reseerves. The reason being seeds need food reserves to sustain the winter and until the shell of the seed cracks and the plant is ready to emerge. This can take months, even years with some trees. Spores have no outer shell and are microscopic and travel very quickly. They don't need food reserves because when they find a good spot to settle they will germinate and start eating food from there very quickly. Ferns are a good example of a plant with spores. Do you see the curly end bits of the ferns before they open? These are called fronds and in these are hidde thousands of spores on thousands of minute hairs stuck to the leaves that will emerge once the frond has unfurled, to then be blown away to colonize somewhere else. >>Sigh from tedious work<< Hope that answered your question!

Why does seeds grow in regular water but not in salt water?
Seeds grow in regular water and not in salt water because regular water is more healthy than salt water.
How would you use a thermometer to show that germinating seeds are respiring?
respiration increases as temperature increases so you could infer that if the seeds are warmer than the surrounding evironment, then respiration is occuring.
Who is better at the stroop effect boys or girls?
Girls are better than boys because they developoed faster than the boys did
Why are seeds and spores different sizes?
Seeds are typically larger than spores because seeds contain nutrients to support the growth of a new plant, while spores are smaller and designed for dispersal over long distances. Seeds are essentially plant embryos, enclosed in protective coats, while spores are single cells that can develop into a new organism under suitable conditions.
Are Dandelion seeds are lighter than fungal spores?
Yes, dandelion seeds are generally lighter than fungal spores due to their size and aerodynamic structure, which allows them to be carried further by the wind. Fungal spores can be heavier and have different dispersal mechanisms depending on the fungal species.
How are spores and seeds different?
Spores are single-celled reproductive structures produced by fungi or some plants, while seeds are complex reproductive structures produced by seed plants. Spores are smaller and simpler than seeds, designed for dispersal in harsh conditions, while seeds contain an embryo and store nutrients for the developing plant.
Why are seeds considered a more effective means of reproduction than spores in a dry environment?
Seeds have a protective seed coat that helps retain moisture, allowing them to survive better in dry environments. Seeds also contain stored nutrients for the developing embryo to use, providing a better chance of survival compared to spores, which typically lack these internal resources. Additionally, seeds have a broader dispersal range due to their larger size and ability to be carried by animals or wind, increasing the likelihood of finding a suitable environment for germination.
Why can seed plants adapt better to their environment than spore-producing plants?
Because seeds have better chances of survival in adverse environmental conditions than the spores
Does algae hav spores or seeds?
Algae typically reproduce through spores rather than seeds. Spores are single-celled reproductive units that can develop into a new algae organism under favorable conditions. Seeds, on the other hand, are typically found in higher plants and have a more complex structure than spores.
Why are seeds more advanced than spores?
One difference between seeds and spores is the number of chromosomes. Spores contain only half the number of chromosomes compared to a seed which contain the full amount.
Can ginger produce spores?
No, ginger does not produce spores as it is a flowering plant that reproduces through seeds. Ginger is propagated through division of rhizomes rather than spores.
How do spores structurally different from seeds?
Spores are single cells that can develop into a new organism, while seeds are multicellular structures that contain an embryo, stored nutrients, and a protective coat. Spores are produced by plants, fungi, and some protozoa, while seeds are primarily produced by seed plants. Spores are usually smaller and simpler structurally than seeds.
What is an advantages of seeds over spores?
Seeds do not require water for gamete fertilization; seeds provide protection of the embryo, and sperm is transferred by pollination, usually by animals rather than just depending upon the wind, s do spores.

Which produces faster... a spore or a seed?
It is a proven fact that plant seeds produce faster than plant spores.2. Spores are smaller than seeds so therefore they take a longer time to grow and develop -ANNONOMOUS
