Definition von liverwort im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

A bryophyte (includes mosses, liverworts, and hornworts) with a leafy stem or leafless thallus characterized by a dominant gametophyte stage and a lack of stomata on the sporophyte stage of the life cycle

Like other bryophytes, liverworts are small, herbaceous plants of terrestrial ecosystems.

{n} orpine, a plant of several kinds

any of numerous small green nonvascular plants of the class Hepaticopsida growing in wet places and resembling green seaweeds or leafy mosses

A bryophyte with a leafy stem or leafless thallus characterized by a dominant gametophyte stage and a lack of stomata on the sporophyte stage of the life cycle

{i} moss-like plant which grows in damp areas

A ranunculaceous plant (Anemone Hepatica) with pretty white or bluish flowers and a three-lobed leaf; called also squirrel cups

A flowerless plant (Marchantia polymorpha), having an irregularly lobed, spreading, and forking frond

Any of more than 8,000 species of small, nonvascular, spore-producing land plants that make up the class Hepatopsida (or Hepaticae) of bryophytes, found worldwide but mostly in the tropics. Thallose liverworts commonly grow on moist soil or damp rocks; leafy liverworts are found in similar habitats and on tree trunks in damp woods. Sexual (gametophyte) and asexual (sporophyte) generations alternate in the life cycle (see alternation of generations). The thallus of thallose liverworts, resembling a lobed liver, gives liverworts their name. Though not economically important to humans, liverworts provide food for animals, facilitate the decay of logs, and aid in the disintegration of rocks by their ability to retain moisture
