Why are ferns and mosses poorly adapted to a terrestrial life​

Biology
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Because they require a WATER medium for reproduction

Explanation:

Ferns are a group of living organisms under the division; Pteridophyta while mosses belong to the group Bryophyta. Mosses are considered primitive and non-vascular plants because they lack true stems, leaves and roots or vascular tissues. while ferns possess these organs, hence, are said to be vascular.

However, ferns and mosses are poorly adapted to a terrestrial life i.e. life on land because they both require a water medium for their motile male gametes to swim and fertilize their eggs (female gametes).

MissTica
In DIFFUSION AND FACILITATED DIFFUSION no energy is used. The one that needs a helper to get thing across is FACILITATED DIFFUSION.<span> Facilitated diffusion involves the diffusion of materials across the cell plasma membrane with the aid of membrane proteins such as carriers and channels. The process of diffusion does not need a carrier, the molecules to be transported just move on their own from the area of high concentration to the region of low concentration until the concentration in the space become uniform.</span>

Svetradugi [14.3K]

In this case, the black body colour is the dominant one. The white dog is  homozygous recessive.

As the cross between the black female 2 and the white male results in all black pups. This means that the all the offsprings are heterozygotes and the Female 1 is homozygous recessive having a BB phenotype (where B codes for dominant allele).

As the cross between the black female and the white male results in four white and three black pups. This means that the all the black offsprings are heterozygotes, and the white ones are homozygous recessive and the Female 2 have a dominant and 1 recessive gene, and is a hetrozygotezygous recessive having a Bb phenotype (where B codes for dominant allele and b codes for recessive allele).
