All those brown "hairs" are the #spore containing structures or #sporophytes. The green part consists of male and female #gametophytes. This is very different from how it works with seed-bearing plants. #Spores only contain one set of chromosomes, #seeds have two!

"The haploid gametophyte generation of mosses is the dominant phase of the life cycle. This contrasts with the pattern in all vascular plants (seed plants and pteridophytes), where the diploid sporophyte generation is dominant."
