Mosses primarily consist of three main parts: the gametophyte, which is the dominant and visible green part; the rhizoids, which anchor the moss to the substrate and help with water absorption; and the sporophyte, which is a stalk that grows from the gametophyte and produces spores for reproduction. The gametophyte includes leaves and stems, while the sporophyte typically contains a capsule where spores are formed. Mosses lack true roots, stems, and leaves in the traditional sense, as they are non-vascular plants.
