Question

describe the gametophyte of anthoceros​

Answer 1

Answer:

External structure:- The plant body i.e., the gametophyte is a small yellowish-green or dark-green dorsiventrally flattened, lobed thallus. The lobes with divided margins overlap. The lobes are thick and fleshy and generally more or less divided to form an irregularly lobed and folded margin.

Answer 2

Answer:

Hornworts are a group of bryophytes (a group of non-vascular plants) constituting the division Anthocerotophyta. The common name refers to the elongated horn-like structure, which is the sporophyte. As in mosses and liverworts, the flattened, green plant body of a hornwort is the gametophyte plant.

Explanation:

Hornworts may be found worldwide, though they tend to grow only in places that are damp or humid. Some species grow in large numbers as tiny weeds in the soil of gardens and cultivated fields. Large tropical and sub-tropical species of Dendroceros may be found growing on the bark of trees.

The total number of species is still uncertain. While there are more than 300 published species names, the actual number could be as low as 100-150 species......
