Explain the life cycle of a fern. Begin with the dominant portion of their life cycle and work your way through the rest including specific names of structures, types of cell division used, and nuclear conditions. Along with your explanation (paragraphs, bulleted points, etc.), I would like for you to discuss in a few sentences how this life cycle is more advanced than a typical moss’s life cycle and, in a few sentences, how it is not quite as advanced as a typical pine’s life cycle

What is the characteristic that distinguishes bryophytes from the other plant phyla? Answers: They do not have embryos. They do not have vascular tissue. They have flowers. They have fruits. They have lignin in their cell walls. Please explain which answer is the correct one.
Draw and label the life cycle of a moss; be certain to show gametangia and sporangia. Which parts are haploid and which are diploid? Where and when does meiosis occur? Plasmogamy? Karyogamy?
Moss gametophyte and sporophyte Describe the colors of the structure and their textures. Indicate which structures are haploid and diploid. Compare the morphology of the moss with the brown algae, polysiphonia, and spirogyra. What's the ecology of mosses and why are they sometimes called natures compass?
While exploring a forest, you come upon a plant that you haven't seen before. You dig it up and take it back to your lab for further inspection. Back at the lab, you observe the characteristic structure of the plant and make some notes. Then, you carefully dissect the stems and leaves and look at the tissue under the microscope. Finally, you are able to determine the type of plant it is. Use the notes below to identify the phylum to which this plant belongs. Notes on physical characteristics of the specimen: the plant has no leaves or roots, but has hair-like rhizomes which anchors it in the soil the stems are highly branched sporangia are present at the ends of each stem dissection of the stem shows the presence of vascular tissue in the form of a xylem and phloem

http://botit.botany.wisc.edu/botany_130/diversity/plants/mosses.html Make a complete moss life cycle with the following phases and structures. Note: download the images of Mnium from this link and arrange them in the exact sequence to make the lifecycle. Lifecycle structures with cell division: Meiosis, fertilization within archegonium, capsule (sporangium), spores (n), protonema (n) (Image), male gametophyte (n) (Image), female gametophyte (n) (Image), antheridia (Image), archegonia (Image), sperm, egg, water, zygote (2n), embryo, young growing sporophyte (2n), mature sporophyte (2n) (Image), rhizoids.
