Mosses - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Exploring the World of Lycophyta: Club Moss and Spike Moss

Lycophyta, comprising club mosses and spike mosses, are ancient seedless vascular plants with differentiated root, stem, and leaves. They reproduce through sporophylls bearing sporangia and show convergence with flowering plant features. With about 1,200 species in existence, lycophytes have a rich

Evolution of the Sporophyte in Bryophytes: Theories and Stages

The evolution of sporophytes in bryophytes like liverworts and mosses follows two main theories - progressive sterilization and reduction. The progression of sporophytes from simpler forms like Riccia to more complex forms like Sphagnum is discussed, highlighting the stages of development such as th

Plant Classification and Reproduction Overview

Plants are categorized into four groups: Mosses, Ferns, Conifers, and Flowering Plants. Mosses reproduce by spores and lack roots or xylem vessels. Ferns reproduce via spores, while conifers reproduce with seeds found in cones and have needle-shaped leaves. Flowering plants reproduce using seeds fou
