Gene mutation

I found this in nature.com, “If a mutation occurs in a germ-line cell (one that will give rise to gametes, i.e., egg or sperm cells), then this mutation can be passed to an organism's offspring. ... Germ-line mutations occur in reproductive cells (sperm or eggs) and are passed to an organism's offspring during sexual reproduction.”

Consider the characteristics of moss and fern life cycles. Which of the following sets of statements is true?A. The gametophyte
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

E) In both mosses and ferns, moisture is required for sperm to reach the egg. In mosses, gametophyte is the dominant stage of the life cycle. In ferns, the sporophyte is the dominant stage of the life cycle.

Explanation:

The *sporophyte of fern plant is dominant over the smaller and nutritionally independent gametophyte*. The sporophytes are photosynthetic, long-lived and highly branched. *Sperm cells of fern possess whip-like flagella in their cell walls that enable moisture swim to reach the egg*

*In Mosses,the gametophyte is more prominent (dominant)* just like in lower plants. These organisms *require external water(moisture) in the form of dew or rain to move their sperm during fertilization*.

Therefore, *In ferns, the sporophyte is dominant over the gametophyte*, while *in mosses,gamatophyte is dominant over the sporophyte.* Both require moisture for sperm to reach egg.
