Too much sunlight dries up the soil... Ferns require moisture in order for fertilization to occur.


Do gymnosperms depend on water?

Yes, gymnosperms do not depend on water for fertilization like mosses or ferns do. They reproduce through the dispersal of pollen, which does not require water as a medium for transportation.


Why does fertilization in ferns require at least a thin film of water?

Fertilization in ferns requires at least a thin film of water because the sperm cells produced by the male gametophyte need to swim to reach the egg cell in the archegonium. This water allows for the sperm to move through, enhancing the chances of successful fertilization.

What is a land plant that produces flagellated sperm and has a sporophyte dominated life cycle?

Explain why ferns live in moist environments even though they have vascular tissue?

This is because the plants relese spores into their surroundings,where they grow into gametophytes. When the gametophtes produce egg cells and sperm cells,there must be enough water available for fertilization. hope my answes correct i too was searching for a long time to find the answer, but when i read again {looks like i found it} ;)
