Is the gametophyte generation haploid or diploid?

yes, the gametophyte generation of a moss is haploid. While the sporophyte generation of a moss is diploid.


In moss the green leafy stuff is haploid or dipliod?

In moss, the green leafy stuff is haploid. Mosses have a life cycle that alternates between a haploid gametophyte stage (the leafy green structure) and a diploid sporophyte stage.


What is the dominant phase of the bryophyte life cycle?

Bryophytes or Moss plants life cycle goes with two stages. The two stages are the haploid (gametophyte) and the diploid (sporophyte) which is the dominant stage.


Compare and contrast the nutritional needs of the gametophyte and the sporophyte of mosses and spore-bearing vascular plants and seed-bearing vascular plants?

The gametophyte of mosses and spore-bearing vascular plants require a moist environment for reproduction, while the sporophyte of seed-bearing vascular plants have evolved mechanisms for dispersal and protection of seeds. Both gametophytes and sporophytes require nutrients such as water, minerals, and sunlight for growth, but the specific nutritional requirements may vary depending on their reproductive strategies and life cycles. Overall, mosses and spore-bearing plants have simpler life cycles with more reliance on water for reproduction compared to seed-bearing vascular plants that have evolved more complex reproductive strategies for increased dispersal.


True about the life cycle of mosses?

The life cycle of moss is as follows:Sperm and egg are fertilized and form a zygote. The zygote transforms into a gametophyte and then a sporophyte. It undergoes meiosis and grows to form moss.


Why are moss non flowering plants?

Moss plants are a very old species. Flowering plants developed after moss was created. Moss reproduce by spores.


What is the green leafy moss part of the moss life cycle?

The green leafy part of the moss life cycle is known as the gametophyte. This haploid structure is responsible for producing gametes—sperm and eggs—through mitosis. The gametophyte is typically what we recognize as moss, forming a lush green carpet in its environment. Upon fertilization, it gives rise to the diploid sporophyte, which eventually produces spores to continue the life cycle.


What is the dominate phase of the moss life cycle?

The dominant phase of the moss life cycle is the gametophyte stage. This is where the plant produces gametes for sexual reproduction, and it is the most visible phase of the life cycle. The sporophyte stage is much shorter and less conspicuous in mosses.


Describe the life cycle of moss?

A moss plant seems like a very simple organism, but it goes through several cycles of growth. The moss starts out as a very simple spore released into the air, but over time, grows into a complex plant.


How does the life cycle of a flowering plant differ from the life cycle of moss?

Moss Plant Life Cycle: The capsule of a moss plant releases spores, into which grow to be a green moss plant. Then fertilization between the plant sperm and the egg begins. Soon, an immature stalk and capsule grow from the fully fertilized egg. When the plant is fully mature, spores again start to grow in the capsule. After this a new moss plant is fully grown and matured.


Does a hair-cup moss grow from spores?

Yes, hair-cap moss does reproduce via spores. The spores are produced in the sporophyte stage of the moss life cycle, released into the environment, and grow into new moss plants under suitable conditions.


What the name of a scientist who studies mosses?

Botanists are people who study plants. Moss are plants, so Botanists study moss too.
