Detailed explanation-1: -The main plant body in Bryophyte is a haploid gametophyte.

Detailed explanation-2: -Moss spores germinate and begin to grow into a chain of cells called a protonema. Male gametophytes are flat topped, called splash cups. Many antheridia are produced within the splash cup, surrounded by sterile cells called paraphyses.

Detailed explanation-3: -In mosses, the dominant stage is the haploid generation (the gametophyte). This means that the green, leafy gametophytic tissue is haploid (has only one set of chromosomes). The gametophyte refers to all organs and tissues that are a part of the haploid generation.

Detailed explanation-4: -The main plant body of the bryophyte is haploid. It produces gametes, hence is called a gametophyte.

Detailed explanation-5: -The gametophytic generation represents the dominant phase in the life cycle of bryophytes. The sporophyte phase is dependent on the gametophyte. That is why, the plant body of Funaria moss is predominantly gametophytic with dependent sporophyte.
