Liverworts and mosses

Liverworts

are small plants that do not

have trueroots, stems orleaves.They
grow indampplaces near streams and
ponds. Mosses have stems and leaves
but they do not have proper roots. They
both reproduce by producingspores.
They make the spores in a capsule that
is raised into the air.Sporesare carried
away byaircurrents when the capsule
opens.

Conifers
Conifers

have roots, a woody stem and

needle like leaves. Most conifers lose
and replace their leavers all year round,
so called evergreen. Almost all conifers
reproduced by makingseedsthat
develop in cones.Each seed has a wing
that prevents the seed falling quickly
and allows it to be blown away by the
wind.

Q8: Why do seaweeds not grow on

sandy beaches, although they may still
be found there?
Seaweeds

do not usually grow on sand

or soft rock because
theunstablesurface does not provide
an adequatehold.
Most seaweeds need to attach
themselves to a solid surface such as
rocks, even boats will do.

Mosses

do not have properrootswhile

conifers have. Besides, almost all
conifers reproduce by
