<p>Six of the eight classes contain only one or two genera each. Polytrichopsida includes 23 genera, and Bryopsida includes the majority of moss diversity with over 95% of moss species belonging to this class. </p><p>The Sphagnopsida, the peat-mosses, comprise the two living genera <i><a href="/wiki/Ambuchanania" title="Ambuchanania">Ambuchanania</a></i> and <i><a href="/wiki/Sphagnum" title="Sphagnum">Sphagnum</a></i>, as well as fossil taxa. <i>Sphagnum</i> is a diverse, widespread, and economically important one. These large mosses form extensive acidic bogs in peat swamps. The leaves of <i>Sphagnum</i> have large dead cells alternating with living photosynthetic cells. The dead cells help to store water. Aside from this character, the unique branching, thallose (flat and expanded) protonema, and explosively rupturing sporangium place it apart from other mosses. </p><p>Andreaeopsida and Andreaeobryopsida are distinguished by the biseriate (two rows of cells) rhizoids, multiseriate (many rows of cells) protonema, and sporangium that splits along longitudinal lines. Most mosses have capsules that open at the top. </p><p>Polytrichopsida have leaves with sets of parallel lamellae, flaps of chloroplast-containing cells that look like the fins on a heat sink. These carry out photosynthesis and may help to conserve moisture by partially enclosing the gas exchange surfaces. The Polytrichopsida differ from other mosses in other details of their development and anatomy too, and can also become larger than most other mosses, with e.g., <i><a href="/wiki/Polytrichum_commune" title="Polytrichum commune">Polytrichum commune</a></i> forming cushions up to 40 cm (16 in) high.

When the ancestors of today's moss started to spread on land 470 million years ago, they absorbed CO<sub>2</sub> from the atmosphere and extracted minerals by secreting organic acids that dissolved the rocks they were growing on. These chemically altered rocks in turn reacted with the atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> and formed new carbonate rocks in the ocean through the weathering of calcium and magnesium ions from silicate rocks. The weathered rocks also released significant amounts of phosphorus and iron which ended up in the oceans, where it caused massive algal blooms, resulting in organic carbon burial, extracting more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Small organisms feeding on the nutrients created large areas without oxygen, which caused a mass extinction of marine species, while the levels of CO<sub>2</sub> dropped all over the world, allowing the formation of ice caps on the poles.<sup id="cite_ref-52" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-52"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>52<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup
