Which of the following statements about ferns is not true? (a) ferns have motile sperm cells that swim through water to the egg-containing archegonium (b) ferns are vascular plants (c) ferns are the most economically important group of bryophytes (d) the fern sporophyte consists of a rhizome, roots, and fronds (e) the diversity of ferns is greatest in the tropics
Bryophytes can be found in every type of habitation, except in the oceans, thus reflecting the progressive species expansion occurred along the evolution. However, bryophytes rarely succeed in the ecosystem. Why do you think so? Give three reasons.
Choose the best below :
How are ferns different from mosses?a. Only ferns produce spores as dispersal agents.b. Ferns have vascular tissue.c. In the fern life cycle, the gametophyte and sporophyte areboth independent.d. Ferns do not have flagellated sperm.e. Both b and c are correct.
