The most common type of liverwort is ______.

Leafy

In liverworts, the well-known flattened species are lobed and resemble_______ , whereas the_______ form is much more common.

Liver leafy

Which of the following distinguish land plants from the clade of green algae known as the charophytes?

Multicellular sporophytes Diploid embryos Multicellular gametophytes

Select all structures produced by mosses.

Rhizoids Sporangia

Liverworts reproduce through Blank______.

Sexual and asexual means

Moss sporophytes typically have a slender _____with a swollen capsule, known as the ______, at its tip.

Stalk sporangium

Select all ways in which moss leaflike structures differ from true leaves.

They lack veins Most of their surface is one cell layer thick They lack stomata

Select all features of mosses.

They use rhizoids to anchor themselves. Rhizoids do not absorb as well as a vascular plant root.

A major adaptation to a terrestrial lifestyle in land plants is Blank______.

a cuticle on exposed surfaces

In mosses and ferns, the haploid (gametophyte) generation occupies Blank______.

a larger portion of the life cycle than it does in seed plants

In mosses, male gametangia are called______ , while female gametangia are called_______ .

antheridia archegonia

Conspicuous, photosynthetic gametophytes are characteristic of Blank______.

bryophytes

Hornwort gametophytes are typically provided with nitrogen by their symbiotic, nitrogen-fixing_______

cyanobacteria

Over the course of plant evolution from bryophytes to seed plants, the general trend has been toward a significant decrease in the size of the_______stage in the life cycle.

gametophyte or haploid

A typical land plant has a(n) _______life cycle, which includes multicellular haploid and diploid stages.

haplodiplontic

In humans, gametes such as sperm and eggs are formed by the cellular process of ________, whereas land plants produce gametes by the process of _________

meiosis mitosis

Over the course of plant evolution, the general trend has been toward Blank______.

more embryo protection and a smaller gametophyte

Organisms that exhibit a haplodiplontic life cycle have Blank______.

multicellular haploid and diploid stages

n mosses and ferns, the gametophyte generation is Blank______.
