In mosses, sperm is produced in specialized structures called antheridia, which are male gametangia. These structures are typically found on the male gametophyte, which is the dominant stage in the moss life cycle. When mature, the antheridia release sperm, which swim through water to reach the female gametophyte's archegonia, where fertilization occurs.

No, Irish moss (seaweed) and linseed (flaxseed) are not known to produce sperm. Sperm is produced by the male reproductive system in animals. These plants do not have a reproductive system capable of producing sperm.
Moss egg cells are produced by the female reproductive organs called archegonia in moss plants. The archegonia are responsible for producing and releasing the egg cells, which are then fertilized by sperm cells to form a zygote.
Moss gametes are non-motile. In moss reproduction, male gametes, or sperm, are produced in antheridia and are released into water, where they swim to reach the female gametes, or eggs, housed in archegonia. However, the sperm itself does not have the ability to move independently; it relies on water for transport.
No, sperm are produced in the testes.
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.

plants
Sperm are produced in the seminiferous tubules.
The sperm cell is produced in the male sex glands or testicles.
Egg is produced in the ovaries in females and sperm in testes in males.
Sperm is produced in the scrotum sac of the male.
