  1. In moss the green plant (organism) is  haploid, at the tip structures produce haploid gametes and after fertilization a sporophyte, which is diploid, grows from the moss.  It produces the spores by meiosis and they are also haploid.  

    In animals the organism itself  is diploid, and haploid structures are produced in the reproductive organs (eggs/sperm) they are produced by meiosis.


  2. Check out this link and click on Bryophytes at the bottom.
