Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The presence of separate male and female gametophytes, archegonia and antheridia, protonema, and sporangia indicate that the plant is a bryophyte, specifically a moss. Ferns and pine trees have separate male and female structures, but they do not have archegonia and antheridia. Dicots and monocots are categories of angiosperms, which have different life cycles and reproductive structures than bryophytes.
