MOSSLIFE CYCLE - MOSSES BEGINS WITH 

THE RELEASE OF SPORES FROM A CAPSULE,


A SINGLE SPORE GERMINATES TO FORM A BRANCHED, FILAMENTOUS PROTONEMA,

FERNS / SEEDKESS VASCULAR PLANTS - . FERTILIZATION TAKES PLACE IN THE


ARCHEGONIUM OF THE GAMETOPHYTE AND FORM A ZYGOTE (2N) AND
GOING TO DEVELOPED IN THE EMBRYO AND BECAME A SPOROPHYTE,
WHEN THE SPOROPHYTE IS MATURE, MEIOSIS HAPPENS, AND SPORANGIUM
BEHIND THE FRONDS WILL RELEASE SPORES(N) AND GENERATE INTO A
GAMETOPHYTE (N) (BOTH FEMALE AND MALE GAMETES) ARE RELEASE BY
THE MATURE SPOROPHYTE EGGS AND SPERM COMES TOGETHER THE
ANOTHER FERN LIFE CYCLE WILL GENERATE.

IN COMPARING, MOSS AND FERN LIFE CYCLES ARE BOTH DEPENDANT ON


WATER, THEY HAVE BOTH ATHERIDIA ANG ARCHEGINA AND THEY ARE BOTH
SEEDLESS. IN CONTRAST TO EACH LIFE CYCLE, THE DOMINANT STAGE IN
FERN LIFE CYCLE IS SPOROPHYTE (2n), WHILE THE DOMINANT PART IN
BRYOPHYTES IS THE GAMETOPHYTE (n). MOSSES LACK IN VASCULAR TISSUE
WHILE FERNS HAS VASCULAR TISSUE.

IN MOSS LIFE CYCLE, SPORES PRODUCE SEPARATE SPORES WHICH IS


ANTHERIDIA AND ARCHEGONIA, THEY DEVELOPED SEPARATELY DEPENDING
ON THE SPORES RELEASE. ANTHERIDIA PRODUCES MALE GAMETOPHYTE,
ARCHGONIA PRODUCE FEMALE GAMETANGIA. HOWEVER, IN FERN
LIFECYCLE THERE IS ONLY ONE GAMETOPHYTE WHICH CARRIES BOTH MALE
AND FEMALE GAMETANGIA.
IN COMPARING PLANT1 TO PLANT2,THEY PROVIDE US WITH FOOD, MEDICINE AND OXYGEN. BOTH
PLANT 1 AND PLANT 2 MAY BE UNDERSTOOD THE LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION. IN CONTRAST, WE CAN
CATECORIZED PLANT 1 AS ECOLOGICALLY WHILE PLANT 2 IS TAXONOMICAL BASE ON THE EVOLUTION.
PLANT 1 SURVIVES AND PRODUCES THEIR OWN FOOD BECAUSE THEY ARE PHOTOSYNTHETIC, HOWEVER
PLANT 2 (PLANTAE KINGDOM) FALLS INTO PARASITIC PLANTS WHICH THEY DO NOT PRODUCE THEIR
OWN FOOD. THEY ORIGINATED PROM A PHOTOSYTHETIC ANCESTOR.

PTERIDOPHYTES ARE PLANTS HAVING VASCULAR TISSUE, SUCH AS FERNS AND FERN ALLIES, WHEREAS
EMBRYOPHYTES ARE PLANTS WITHOUT VASCULAR TISSUE, SUCH AS BRYOPHYTES. FERNS DIFFER FROM
MOSSES IN THAT THEIR CELLS ARE ARRANGED INTO TISSUES AND ORGANS SUCH AS ROOTS, STEMS,
AND LEAVES, MAKING THEM MORE DEVELOPED THAN MOSSES. THEY ALSO HAVE VASCULAR TISSUE
(XYLEM AND PHLOEM), WHICH AIDS DEVELOPMENT BY EFFICIENTLY TRANSPORTING WATER AND
NUTRIENTS THROUGHOUT THE PLANT.

meristematic tissues in plants are important because it Because the source of all new cells in a
plant is the meristem, this tissue plays an important role in organ development as well because
It helps the plant increase its growth, Meristematic tissues helps the plant grow up toward
the sun and down into the soil.

Secondary meristematic tissue helps the plant increase the girth or lateral growth of its stems,
branches, and roots.

In a plant, xylem are used to transport water, while the phloem are used to transport
nutrients, just like the xylem and phloem it transports water and nutrients to the rest of our body.
In the circulatory system, however, there is no system that distributes just water, but The
circulatory system specifically our veins and arteriesthat carries oxygen, nutrients, and
hormones to cells, and removes waste products, like carbon dioxide of our body.

. This is a system of tubes which carry blood around the body.

Rather, all parts of the system distribute blood. In this sense, xylem are completely unlike the
circulatory system.
