Detailed explanation-1: -Bryophytes have muticellular male sex organs called antheridia . Antheridia produce biflagellate male gametes called antherozoids. Antherozoids are released into water in which they swim to reach the archegonium or the female sex organ.

Detailed explanation-2: -general, the male gametes (antherozoids) are produced in globose structures (antheridia) that are either stalked or sunken in the gametophyte. The antherozoids, always many in number, develop from mother cells enclosed in the jacket of the antheridium.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Antherozoids of Bryophytes possess 2 flagella so we can say that Antherozoids of Bryophytes are biflagellated and have a long coiled body. Antherozoid are also called spermatozoids. These are male gametes produced in the antheridia of bryophytes, fungi, algae, pteridophytes, and some gymnosperms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Antherozoids are the male gametes formed in bryophytes. These are borne in the antheridia, which are the male sex organs.

Detailed explanation-5: -Pollen grains are microscopic structures that represent the male gamete of the plants. These are produced inside the anthers by the meiosis of microspore mother cells.
