Do mosses have an alternation of isomorphic or heteromorphic generations? That is, can you easily tell a moss gametophyte from a moss sporophyte? When we look at leafy green moss plants, what are we seeing—the gametophyte or the sporophyte? In a flowering plant species, would the equivalent stage be the plant or the pollen grains and megagametophytes?
Compare and contrast the three phyla of bryophytes using the specified bases in the Table below.
Bases
Hepatophyta
Anthocerotophyta
Bryophyta
1. Growth form (leafy or thallose)
2. Arrangement of leaves on the stem for leafy types
3. Mechanism of spore dispersal
4. Presence of stomata on the sporophytes
5. Presence of primitive conducting cells
6. Presence of chloroplast on the sporophyte
7. Structure of the protonema
8. Presence of symbiotic cyanobacteria
9. Length of the seta
The non-vascular plants are represented today by three phyla of small herbaceous plants namely: Phylum Hepatophyta, Phylum Anthocerophyta, and Phylum Bryophyta. Cite and explain how the structure fits function in bryophytes

STEP 1: Examine the mass of moss plants and then select one or two individual gametophyte plants and note the leaf-like (not true leaves because they lack conducting tissue) structures which are arranged around a central, vertical "stem-like" stalk and root-like rhizoids which anchor the plant and absorb water and nutrients. STEP: The sex organs are in the tips of the plants and must be seen with the microscope. Study a slide of a vertical section through head of a mate plant and note the many antheridia. STEP 3: Examine a slide through a vertical section of a female plant. Note the many upright archegonia each on a tall stalk and each with a swollen base or venter containing an egg and an elongate neck. Note the filamentous paraphyses between the archegonia.
