Yes, green moss does produce spores as part of its reproductive cycle. These spores are released from the sporophyte structure of the moss and can germinate to grow into new moss plants.


What does a fertilized moss egg grow into?

A fertilized moss egg grows into a moss plant or a gametophyte. This is the dominant, photosynthetic stage of the moss life cycle where reproductive structures develop.


Are gametophytes vascular plants?

In a moss, gametophytes are photosynthestic.

Is the sporophyte stage of a moss much larger than the gametophyte stage?

Ferns have a dominant sporophyte and a reduced gametophyte. As for moss, it depends on the type. If referring to mosses under the phylum Bryophyta (these are the nonvascular mosses) they have a dominant gametophyte. If referring to mosses under seedless vascular category, such as club mosses in the phylum Lycophyta, these plants have a dominant sporophyte and a reduced gametophyte.


What is part of a bryophyte sporophyte?

Either a Spore or Sori The Rhizome is an underground stem that they grow from. Hope I helped!


How does the life cycle of a flowering plant differ from the life cycle of moss?

Flowering plants have a more complex life cycle called alternation of generations, involving both sporophyte and gametophyte stages, with distinct structures like flowers and seeds. Mosses have a simpler life cycle, with the dominant gametophyte stage visible as the green moss we often see, and the sporophyte stage growing on the gametophyte.
