Question

Explain the reproductive advantage that an angiosperm (like apple trees) would have over mosses

Answer 1

Angiosperm´s seed have outer protection and an endosperm

Step-by-step explanation:

Mosses reproduce through the use of spores. The angiosperms reproduce by seeds, seeds offers many advantages, they have outer protection, a shell that protects the inside from damage, desiccation and adverse conditions. Seeds also have endosperm as nourishment for the embryo instead the spore doesn't have any built-in system to help a new mosses begin the growth process.

Angiosperms didn't need to rely on the wind or water to spread their pollen around, they need a pollinator.

Answer 2

Angiosperm is being referred to as seed-producing plants.

They are being distinguished from other gymnosperms by characteristics which include

1. endosperm within the seeds.
2. production of fruits which contain seeds and also the flowers.

Angiosperm they have an advantage from mosses in that, Angiosperm does not rely on water for fertilization to take place but mosses they do rely on water for the flowers to attract animals and function as dispersal agent to attract animals.
