Yes, I am sure that mosses spend most of their life cycle in the gametophyte phase. In mosses, the dominant stage is the gametophyte, which is the leafy green structure that we commonly associate with moss. This is where the reproductive structures, such as antheridia and archegonia, are formed, and where fertilization takes place. The sporophyte, on the other hand, is a much smaller and less prominent stage that is dependent on the gametophyte. It produces spores through meiosis and is typically short-lived. So, the gametophyte phase is the main phase in the life cycle of mosses.
