Ceratophyllum demersum
Hornworts are small, ancient plants that grow in damp places like soil, rocks, or tree bark. They don't have roots but help enrich the soil where they live.
生息地: Wetlands
The Hornwort is a small, flat plant, often appearing as a dark green, irregularly shaped patch clinging to moist soil or rocks. It distinguishes itself with slender, horn-like capsules (sporophytes) that grow upright from its base, releasing tiny spores.

Hornworts are among Earth's oldest land plants, dating back over 400 million years!
Hornworts have unique internal cavities within their plant body, sometimes filled with helpful microscopic algae!
Their horn-shaped capsules can grow for weeks or even months, slowly releasing countless tiny spores!
Unlike most plants, each hornwort cell usually contains just one large, bowl-shaped chloroplast!
Hornwort can partner with tiny cyanobacteria living inside its body, which helps it capture vital nitrogen from the air for growth.
Hornwort has a single large chloroplast in each cell, unlike most plants, which efficiently captures sunlight for energy.
Hornwort can release its spores from a unique horn-shaped capsule that continuously grows, allowing it to spread offspring widely.
