Question

Is moss a gymnosperm?


Open in App
Solution

Mosses:

  1. They are devoid of a vascular system.
  2. There are no real roots, stalks, or leaves on them.
  3. They make stalked capsules and spores in these capsules.
  4. Male and female gametophytes fertilize and create sporophytes from these spores.
  5. Because the sporophyte is not photosynthetic, it is completely reliant on the gametophyte.

Mosses are a type of bryophyte, not a gymnosperm.
