The reason for this is because it is a category of plant that has no vascular system, where he gametophyte (The visible part of the plant) is the one that dominates throughout its cycle. At first glance, you can see that the part of the leaves of the plant's root cannot be distinguished, as in other types of species. Īnother characteristic of mosses is the simplicity of its general structure. ![]() When you land on another damp and dimly lit surface, the new moss grows. The wind, or the movement produced by water currents in this case, distributes spores. Both unite in the same environment and a new structure is created, responsible for producing spores, which is called the sporophyte. In especially humid environments, the antheridium swells and release male gametes, while the archegonium releases female gametes. How is this? Well because mosses are hermaphroditic species that are formed by the two sexual parts: the so-called archegonium, Which is the female structure, as well as the antheridium, male structure. This is so because this peculiar plant species it has no seeds as a fruit of reproduction, but is reproduced by spores without the help of any other moss to associate with. We have already told you that the moss has no roots, and therefore does not need to be buried in any surface with substrate to grow. This means that a aquatic environment It is one of the places where they have the greatest capacity for growth. ![]() The TAI-certified moss They are a type of plant with very peculiar characteristics, especially because they have no roots and grow on any surface in which they are in optimal conditions.Īlmost all species of moss have a special predilection for shady and humid places.
