Political institutions are structured systems and organizations within a government that are responsible for creating, implementing, and enforcing laws and policies. They play a crucial role in the governance process and can include various entities such as:
Legislatures: Bodies responsible for making laws, such as parliaments or congresses.
Executives: Individuals or offices responsible for implementing laws and managing the government, including presidents, prime ministers, and their cabinets.
Judiciaries: Courts and judges responsible for interpreting laws and ensuring justice.
Bureaucracies: Administrative agencies and departments that execute government policies and manage public services.
Political Parties: Organizations that represent different political ideologies and compete in elections to influence government policy.
These institutions function together to ensure the effective operation of a government, maintain order, and address the needs and interests of the public.

The term Bryophyta was first introduced by Braun (1864), however, he included algae, fungi, lichens and mosses in this group. Later, algae, fungi and lichens were placed in a separate division Thallophyta and liverworts, mosses in division Bryophyta. The rank of division Bryophyta to this well-defined group of plants was first given by Schimper (1879).International code of
Botanical Nomenclature (ICBN) suggested in 1956-that the suffix-opsida should be used for the classes and such usage had already been proposed by Rothmaler (1951) for the classes of Bryophytes.

Bryophyta (Gr. Bryon = moss; phyton = plant), a division of kingdom Plantae comprises of
Liverworts, Hornworts and mosses. They are groups of green plants which occupy a position
between the thallophytes (Algae) and the vascular cryptogams (Pteridophytes). Bryophytes
produce embryos but lack seeds and vascular tissues. They are the most simple and primitive
group of Embryophyta. They are said to be the first land plants or non-vascular land plants
(Atracheata). Presence of swimming antherozoids is an evidence of their aquatic ancestory.
Bryophytes are land plants that differ from all other plants lacking lignified vascular
tissue by having the gametophyte generation dominant and having unbranched sporophytes
that produce a single sporangium

It is one of the most common liverworts found in moist, shady, cool areas with abundant moisture. It grows in large mats. Damp soil, streams, springs, wet rocks are the favorable places for its growth. There are about 65 species of Marchantia and are found all over the world. The most common species of Himalayan region are M. palmata, M. polymorpha and M. nepalensis
- On completion of this topic students will be able to Distinguish and identify the marchantiaene Understand the mode reproduction.

Anthoceros is represented by about 200 species. All species are terrestrial and cosmopolitan in distribution. The species grow in very moist and shady places like slopes, rocks or sides of the ditches. Some species are found growing on decaying wood (Cavers, 1911). Unlike other bryophytes Anthoceros is usually not well adapted to resist dry conditions.
In India Anthoceros is represented by about 25 species. Out of these three species of Anthoceros viz., A. himalayensis, A. erectus and A. chambensis are commonly found growing in the Western Himalayan region at an altitude of 5000-8000 feet (Kashyap, 1915). These species are also found growing in Mussoorie, Kulu, Manali, Kumaon, Chamba valley, Punjab, Madras and in plains of South India.
Mehra and Handoo (1953) reported A. himalayensis
- Upon completing studies on Anthoceros (hornworts), students should understand its classification, morphology, anatomy, and reproduction, including the alternation of generations between haploid and diploid phases. They should also be able to identify the unique features of hornworts, such as the symbiotic relationship with Nostoc and the presence of pyrenoids in chloroplasts. Additionally, students should grasp the significance of Anthoceros as a model organism for studying the evolution of land plants.

The genus is cosmopolitan in its distribution. It includes 117 species. F.hygrometrica is the most common moss which is found all over the world. The mosses grow luxuriantly in
humus soil and on the soil burnt by fire. They grow well on damp rocks and wall. The green protonema grows on the newly ploughed fields while some are epiphytic and grows well on tree trunks.
- Upon completing studies on Funaria, students should understand its classification as a bryophyte, know its life cycle including alternation of generations, and be familiar with its structure and reproduction, including both vegetative and sexual methods. They should also be able to identify Funaria in the field and appreciate its ecological role

The evolution of sporophyte in Bryophytes have been explained with the help of two theories: one is the Antithetic Theory or Theory of Sterilization and the other one is the Homologous Theory or Reduction Theory. The antithetic theory states that the evolution of sporophytes has taken place from simple (Riccia, Marchantia) to complex (Funaria, Sphagnum) sporophytes through progressive sterilization of potentially sporogenous tissue. The other theory (Homologous theory) however assumes that the evolution of sporophyte has taken place from more complex sporophytes (Funaria, Sphagnum) to simpler ones (Riccia, Marchantia) by retrogressive sterilization of sporogenous tissues (exactly opposite is that of antithetic theory).

Fungi include hundreds of species which are of tremendous economic importance to man. In fact our lives are intimately linked with those of fungi. Hardly a day passes when we are not benefited or harmed directly or indirectly by these organisms.
They play an important role in medicine yielding antibiotics, in agriculture by maintaining the fertility of the soil and causing crop and fruit diseases, forming basis of many industries and as important means of food. Some of the fungi are important research tools in the study of fundamental biological processes.
- After studying the economic importance of fungi, degree students will gain a comprehensive understanding of how these organisms impact various industries, including medicine, agriculture, food, and industry. They will also learn about the dual nature of fungi, acknowledging both their beneficial and detrimental roles in human society. This knowledge can be applied in diverse career paths, from research and development to biotechnology and sustainable agriculture.
