The gametophyte of Pteridophytes is inconspicuous in comparison to the mosses. They are also
commonly monecious (single "house", or thallus for male and female gamete production). The photo
below shows a whole mount (w.m.) of a fern gametophyte at 40x.
Make a sketch of the specimen and label the following structures: archegonium, antheridium, mature
gametophyte (a.k.a. prothallus), rhizoids
90
Fill in the blanks:
is the apical archegonial tissue that protects the maturing sporophyte.
One reason that mosses are dependent on wet environments is;
They lack a cuticle
They do not have rhizoids
They need water for fertilization
They produce seeds
