What are 4 needs that plants and animals need?
Plants and animals needp:food,water,reproduction,digeston.
What do plants depend on weather for?
plants need weather to supply them with water and also to spread there seeds. Moss cant even reproduce without water
Why do moss plants need to grow in damp places?
Moss and certain other families of plants such as ferns (pteridophytes) are very old in evolutionary terms, and need moist environments both to survive and to reproduce. More 'recent' or 'modern' plants have developed waxy cuticles and different internal structures and cell walls to stop dehydration. And they have also developed pollen which allows for fertilisation by wind transfer, insects, etc. Older families of plants are dependent on water not only because they dehydrate easily due to their structure, but because they have a complex lifecycle which involves fertilisation of female plants by male plants. This is acheived by the transfer of spermatophyte cells released by the male which swim through a film of water to the female. The female then develops of spores in the fruiting body (i.e. the sticky-up bit you sometimes see on moss) of the female moss which are released to grow into new moss plants. So without a moist environment, the moss dehydrates and can die, (although some species can survive without water for a long time, there are even desert mosses!), but definitely need water to reproduce.

Do all plants need water to make fertilization occur?
No, plants do not need water to make fertilization occur. Fertilization in plants involves the fusion of male and female gametes, typically through the transfer of pollen. Water is not directly involved in this process, although it is crucial for other aspects of plant growth and reproduction.
What do seedless plants need for reproduction?
tenderloins
Why is moss reproduction limited to moist conditions?
Moss reproduction is limited to moist conditions because their sperm need water to swim and reach the egg for fertilization. Additionally, mosses rely on water for spore dispersal and germination, as the spores require a damp environment to develop into gametophytes. Without sufficient moisture, these processes are hindered, limiting their ability to reproduce effectively.
What do bryophytes need a film of water for?
Bryophytes, such as mosses and liverworts, need a film of water for reproduction. The sperm of bryophytes require water to swim to the egg for fertilization, as they do not have specialized structures for pollen transfer like flowering plants. Additionally, water helps in the dispersal of spores for reproduction in bryophytes.
The first organisms that did not require water for reproduction were the?
The first organisms that did not require water for reproduction were likely plants and some types of fungi. These organisms evolved mechanisms such as pollen and spores to reproduce in dry conditions without the need for water.
How do you make grass in the game alxemy?
You will need earth+moss to get grass.
Need 3 plants that grows on woods?
Mistletoe, Spanish moss, and ivy are three plants that grow on trees.
What plants do not need soil?
Orchids for one, they are epiphytes which derive their nutrients from the nitrogen in the air. Spanish Moss also lives like this. Water plants don't need soil. If you don't consider sand as soil, then succulents and cacti don't need soil, but then it comes down to how you are defining soil. Almost any plant can be grown hydroponically, that is, with water enriched with nutrients.
What does moss grow from?
Moss typically grows from spores that are carried by the wind or water. These spores land on a suitable surface, such as soil, rocks, or trees, where they germinate and begin to grow into moss plants.
