this is bull i type the question and sometimes it shows mup but most of the time it doesnt :(


Do vascular plants produce antheridia and archegonia on the same gametophyte?

Only in those cases where spores are not differentiated into micro- & megaspores for developing the gametophytes. Thus homosporous vascular plants produce archegonia and antheridia on same gametophyte.


What is a primitive vascular plant?

Primitive vascular plants are also know as a pteridophytes but fern is their more common name. The ferns life cycle is split between sporophytes phases and free-living gametophytes unlike other vascular plants.


What are similaraties between angiosperms and gymnosperms?

Both bear seeds; both are vascular plants; Gametophytes in both groups are dependent on sporophytes


What is true of both nonvascular plants an seedless vascular plants?

Both nonvascular plants and seedless vascular plants reproduce using spores, lack seeds and flowers, and rely on water for fertilization to occur. Additionally, they do not have a well-developed system for water and nutrient transport like vascular plants do.


Are the male and female gametophytes separate plants or part of the same plant?

Male and Female gametophytes are in separate plants


What is the characteristics of seed bearing vascular plants?

According to Wikipedia:"Vascular plants are distinguished by two primary characteristics:Vascular plants have vascular tissues which distribute resources through the plant. This feature allows vascular plants to evolve to a larger size than non-vascular plants, which lack these specialized conducting tissues and are therefore restricted to relatively small sizes.""In vascular plants, the principal generation phase is the sporophyte, which is usually diploid with two sets of chromosomes per cell. Only the germ cells and gametophytes are haploid. By contrast, the principal generation phase in non-vascular plants is the gametophyte, which is haploid with one set of chromosomes per cell. In these plants, only the spore stalk and capsule are diploid."


How do vascular and non-vascular plants reproduce?

Most of the vascular plants have flowers, thus implying that they reproduce by seeds-gymnosperms. By contrast, non-vascular plants don't usually have flowers and thus reproduce by other means; for example, fungi reproduce by spores.

What is the definition of non vascular plants?

Non-vascular plants is a general term for those plants without a vascular system (xylem and phloem). Although non-vascular plants lack these particular tissues, a number of non-vascular plants possess tissues specialized for internal transport of water. Non-vascular plants have no roots, stems, or leaves, since each of these structures is defined as containing vascular tissue. The lobes (rounded parts) of the liverwort may look like leaves, but they are not true leaves because they have no xylem or phloem. Likewise, mosses and algae have no such tissues. All plants have a life cycle with an alternation of generations between a diploid sporophyte and a haploid gametophyte, but nonvascular plants include the only plants that have a dominant gametophyte generation. In these plants, the sporophytes grow attached and are dependent on gametophytes for taking in water and other materials. Non-vascular plants grow from spores.
