Pteridophyta |
- Ferns are an example of a group of plants known as "pteridophytes." - Pteridophytes are a diverse group of vascular plants that reproduce and disperse using spores instead of seeds. - They do not produce flowers or fruits like angiosperms (flowering plants) or gymnosperms (seed-producing plants). Instead, pteridophytes, including ferns, reproduce by releasing spores, which are tiny, dust-like structures that contain the potential to develop into new individuals under favorable conditions. |
