The Life Cycle of Moss Plants

The video explains the reproduction process of mosses, highlighting the alternation of generations. It describes the predominant haploid gametophyte phase, the development of protonema, and the formation of male and female gametophores. Fertilization occurs when sperm swim to eggs, leading to the growth of diploid sporophyte plants. These sporophytes remain attached to the gametophyte for nourishment. The cycle concludes with spore production through meiosis, completing the alternation of generations in mosses.
