On a class trip to a local creek, you discover a shrub-like plant with large, lobed leaves. When you look under the leaves, you see brown dots, and a network of veins. When you take a sample of the brown dots, you realize that they are made up of many microscopic spheres that are not seeds. You determine that you have found a: Question 13 options: Bryophyte Gymnosperm Fern Club Moss
