Are seed ferns a type of true fern?
Seed Ferns are an extinct group of plants that had fern-like foliage. However, they are not true ferns because unlike true ferns they did not spread spores as a means of reproduction, but seeds. Their numbers were severly reduced in the Permian period, and they were finally wiped out as a group by the end of the Cretaceous.
What life cycle components appear only in mosses and ferns?
The gametophyte generation is more prominent and independent in mosses and ferns compared to seed plants. Also, the sporophyte generation in mosses and ferns is not as prominent or long-lived as in seed plants. Finally, mosses and ferns rely on water for fertilization, a characteristic not seen in seed plants.
Do pollination take place in ferns?
Yes they do. Most commonly called spoaring. They spread spoares in the air.
Which of these is a seed plants horsetails mosses ferns conifers?
Horsetails produce seeds while mosses, ferns, and conifers produce spores.
What are seed plants that do not produce flowers called?
Seed plants that do not produce flowers are called gymnosperms. These plants reproduce by producing seeds exposed on the surface of specialized structures, such as cones or scales, rather than enclosed within a fruit as seen in flowering plants. Examples of gymnosperms include conifers, cycads, and ginkgoes.

What you call seed producing plant?
It is called a seed plant, not to be confused with ferns and mosses whose gametes require water for fertilization. Seed plants can be either gymnosperms or angiosperms.Spermatophyte
How do non-seed plants reproduce?
Non-seed plants reproduce through spores. Spores are produced in specialized structures on the plant, such as sporangia, and are released into the environment where they can germinate into new plants under favorable conditions. This process is called spore dispersal and allows non-seed plants like ferns and mosses to spread and reproduce.
What term could be used to describe the seed of an ancient plant?
Gymnosperms are the ancient surviving seed producing plants. They have been around since the dinosaurs. White ferns and liverworts are even older, but they use spores to reproduce instead of seeds.
A leafy nonseed plant?
Woodland ferns are leafy non-seed plants.
Why arent ferns classified as seed plants?
They grow from spores, not seeds or flowers.
Do pollination take place in ferns?
Yes they do. Most commonly called spoaring. They spread spoares in the air.
