Are they haploid or diploi Describe two differences between a fern sporophyte and a moss sporophyte. Are fern spores haploid or diploid? Are the spores produced by meiosis or mitosis? Where are the spores produced?In general where is thesporophyte positioned inrelation to the gametophyte inbryophytes? How does thesporophyte obtain nutrients?
- How are the gametophytes of seedless vascular plants similar to the gametophytes of bryophytes? How are they different?The gametophyte of Pteridophytes is inconspicuous in comparison to the mosses. They are also commonly monecious (single house for male and female gamete production). The photo below shows a whole mount (w.m.) of a fern gametophyte at 4x.
