Reindeer Moss, like other lichens, does not have any roots. It has the ability to absorb moisture and nutrients from the air through cells on its surface. However, this adaptation makes reindeer moss very susceptible to pollutants in the environment. Like other types of lichen, reindeer moss is a good indicator of environmental quality because of its high absorption from the surrounding air.
