Spores are single-celled reproductive structures produced by certain organisms like fungi, whereas seeds are multicellular structures produced by plants. Spores are smaller and more lightweight than seeds, and are often capable of surviving in adverse conditions for long periods of time. Additionally, spores do not contain an embryo like seeds do.
What else can I help you with?
How are seeds and spores alike?
Alike:They can grown into plants and can be different size and shpes. Different: A seed has many cells. A spores has one cell.
Which first step in the orig in of the seed can already be observed in the pterophytes and lycophytes?
The first step in the origin of the seed that can be observed in pterophytes (ferns) and lycophytes is the development of the sporangium, where spores are produced. Both groups exhibit a dominant sporophyte generation that produces spores through meiosis, which is a precursor to seed formation. Additionally, the presence of a protective structure around the spores, although not a seed, hints at the evolutionary transition towards seed development seen in seed plants.
Does flowering plant reproduce by seed or spores?
Flowering plants reproduce by seeds
How are spores and seeds different?
Spores are single-celled reproductive structures produced by fungi or some plants, while seeds are complex reproductive structures produced by seed plants. Spores are smaller and simpler than seeds, designed for dispersal in harsh conditions, while seeds contain an embryo and store nutrients for the developing plant.
A plant that produces a naked seed?
Actually Pteridophytes are ferns and the like. They have spores. I think Gymnosperms is the term you're thinking of. It comes from the Greek for naked seed.
How are seed and spores different and alike?
spores are not seeds and seeds are not spores
How do spores structurally different from seeds?
Spores are single cells that can develop into a new organism, while seeds are multicellular structures that contain an embryo, stored nutrients, and a protective coat. Spores are produced by plants, fungi, and some protozoa, while seeds are primarily produced by seed plants. Spores are usually smaller and simpler structurally than seeds.
Are mosses dispersed by seed or spores?
Spores
Is a cactus grown from a seed or a bulb or spores?
A cactus grows from a seed.
Do fungi have seed dispersal?
Yes, but fungi disperse spores not seed.
What do scientists call the seed of a fungus?
Mushrooms reproduce from spores not seeds. Plants that grow from spores are called fungi. Spores are very tiny and can't usually be seen with the naked eye.
The seed plant spores that produce microgametophytes?
The spores that produce microgametophytes are called microspores.
Does moss make a seed?
no. it makes spores.
Do sunflowers grow from spores?
No, they are seed producing.
How are seeds and spores alike?
Alike:They can grown into plants and can be different size and shpes. Different: A seed has many cells. A spores has one cell.
What are two advantages seed have over spores?
when a seed begins to grow the young plant uses the food stored in the seed. the spores of the seedless plants dont have stored food to help a new plant grow.
The seed plant spores that produce megagametophytes?
megaspores
