Vascular is a system of vessels for conveying fluid e.g. blood in mammals, sap in trees.Presumably non-vascular is the opposite, something that does not have a system of fluid carrying vessels.

Are animals vascular or non-vascular?
Vascular and non-vascular terminology only applies to plants. Vascular tissue is the water carrying xylem and the sugar transporting phloem, which some plants do not use as they are water plants, or semi-water plants. A virus contains genetic material surrounded by a protein capsid, generally. Some contain reverse transcriptase enzymes, but none could be termed vascular, or non-vascular.
What does non nonvascular mean?
Non-vascular plants is a general term for those plants without a vascular system (xylem and phloem). Although non-vascular plants lack these particular tissues, a number of non-vascular plants possess tissues specialized for internal transport of water. Non-vascular plants have no roots, stems, or leaves, since each of these structures is defined as containing vascular tissue. The lobes (rounded parts) of the liverwort may look like leaves, but they are not true leaves because they have no xylem or phloem. Likewise, mosses and algae have no such tissues. All plants have a life cycle with an alternation of generations between a diploid sporophyte and a haploid gametophyte, but nonvascular plants include the only plants that have a dominant gametophyte generation. In these plants, the sporophytes grow attached and are dependent on gametophytes for taking in water and other materials. Non-vascular plants grow from spores.

What is the connection between electricity production and seedless nonvascular and seedless vascular plants?
nonvascular produce hydrogen
What is the difference between vascular plants and nonvascular plants?
The difference is that vascular plants can grow very large because they have xylem and phloem to carry water, nutrients and food to all their parts. Nonvascular plants do not have xylem and phloem so each cell has to absorb water and nutrients from the soil and air.
