Q

Leptosporangia divides how

A

by a precise pattern the outer cell divides and creates an elaborate stalked sporangium with a capsule having a wall that is one cell thick

Q

Leptosporangia as it dries out the annulus

A

contracts splitting the capsule along the lip cells exploting (dehiscence) the spores out to the world.
