8. Bryophytes are often referred to as "amphibians of the plant kingdom" due to their dependence on water. Which of the following statements correctly describes the reason for this dependence?

Water is essential for bryophytes only during the sporophytic phase, as gametophytes are independent and produce seeds without water. |
