What trait do ferns have that mosses do not?
Mosses are non-vascular plants whereas ferns are vascular. In ferns Sporophyte is dominant but in mosses gametophyte is dominant generation. Ferns have definite roots but in mosses leaves and roots are mostly false.
Do club mosses and horsetails have fronds?
No, club mosses and horsetails do not have fronds. Club mosses have small, scale-like leaves and horsetails have hollow, jointed stems with tiny leaves arranged in whorls.
What plants are waterproof?
While no plants are completely waterproof, some have adaptations that allow them to thrive in very wet conditions. Aquatic plants like water lilies and lotus have waxy coatings on their leaves to repel water. Mangroves, which grow in coastal intertidal zones, have specialized structures to filter saltwater and withstand flooding. Additionally, certain ferns and mosses can tolerate prolonged saturation, making them resilient in damp environments.
What are examples of lycophyta?
Examples of lycophytes include club mosses, spike mosses, and quillworts. These plants are small and typically have creeping or upright stems with small leaves. Lycophytes are considered some of the oldest vascular plants.
How do the size of moss moss fern plants differ?
Ferns are vascular plants. They contain vascular strands that allow water and nutrients to be transferred throughout the the plant. Mosses lack the vascular strands(or tissue) causing the mosses to have a much smaller stature because they are not able to transfer nutrients very well.
Do mosses have leaves?
No they do not

Does mosses have stemsrootsor leaves and why?
no because they don't grow by seed.that's why.
Do moss have leaves, and if so, what is the structure and function of these leaves in moss plants?
Mosses do not have true leaves like other plants. Instead, they have small, simple structures called phyllids that serve a similar function to leaves. These phyllids help mosses to photosynthesize and absorb water, but they are not as complex as true leaves.
What did mastadon's eat?
Mastodons were herbivores (plant-eaters) who ate the leaves of tree leaves, shrubs, mosses, twigs, and other plants.
What biome has mosses lichens grasses short small roots smll leaves?
Tundra
What are parts of mosses and ferns?
strobili, branches, aerial stem, leaves [microphylls], rhizome.

Mosses do not have true stems or leaves true or false?
Moss spreads by a variety of methods. Most species produce small capsules above the leafy part of the plant containing spores. These spores are easily dispersed by wind, water or traffic. After coming into contact with soil, they germinate and form a plant-like structure that is the first stage in the development of moss. Moisture and minerals are absorbed by rhizoids (similar to roots) and produce new buds which give rise to new stems.
What is the waxy waterproof layer that covers the leaves and stems of most plants?
The waxy waterproof layer that cover most plant leaves and stems is called a cuticle. The cuticle is thicker on the upper half of a leaf's surface, and it is waterproof so as the internal areas of the leaf are kept secure from flooding, That's why you water plants at the roots.
Do all plants have leaves, or are there some exceptions to this common characteristic?
Not all plants have leaves. Some plants, like mosses and ferns, do not have true leaves but instead have structures that serve similar functions.
