Question

Mosses, liverworts, and hornworts are examples of what type of plant in which gametophyte generation is dominant?

Answer 1

nonvascular plants

Nonvascular plants include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. They are the only plants with a life cycle in which the gametophyte generation is dominant. Figure below shows the life cycle of moss. The familiar, green, photosynthetic moss plants are gametophytes. The sporophyte generation is very small and dependent on the gametophyte plant.
