Stem of gymnosperm is aerial.Stem of pteridophytes are mostly underground.Tree Ferns have long aerial stems but these are Pteridophytes. The real difference is that gymnosperms bear seeds pteridophytes are without seeds.
Bryophytes require constant moisture to survive, and shading helps maintain a moist environment by reducing evaporation. Additionally, shading can protect them from excessive sunlight, which can cause desiccation and damage their delicate structure. Overall, shaded areas provide the ideal conditions for bryophytes to thrive and reproduce.
Bacteria, arising in the Precambrian followed by bryophytes, the simplest land plants of the Silurian and Devonian followed by pteridophytes (ferns), more advanded than bryophytes due to the acquisition of vascular tissue and sporophyte dominance.
Correct, a fern is not a type of bryophyte. Ferns belong to a different plant group called Pteridophytes, while bryophytes include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Ferns have vascular tissues for conducting water and nutrients, while bryophytes lack true vascular tissues.
Gymnosperms are a group of seed bearing plants including conifers, there are only between 700 and 900 species. Pteridophytes produce neither seeds nor flowers, they reproduce by spores. They are often planted as ornamentals.
Gametophytes are green only in bryophytes and pteridophytes. This is to be photosynthetic.
Lower plants like bryophytes and pteridophytes reproduce using spores.

Comparative study of the plant groups show that the bryophytes have forms more complex than the algae but they are less developed than the pteridophytes although there is a tendency of differentiation of the gametophytic body which is not found in the pteridophytes

Strictly speaking all plants, for without water plants die! However algae, bryophytes (mosses and liverworts) and pteridophytes (ferns) all have motile male gametes which require free water to swim through to the female gamete.

The difference is that flowering plants have cells and absorb sunlight, bryophytes do not absorb sunlight or form photsynthesis.

he difference between bryophytes and Bryophyta is one of taxonomic classification. Bryophyta is a taxonomic phylum within the kingdom Plantae.
Kingdom Plantae is divided into subkingdoms Tracheobionta and Spermatophyta, as well as a miscellaneous category. Perhaps the most important phyla are bryophytes (mosses and ilk), pteridophytes (ferns and ilk), pteridophytes (conifers and ilk), and then angiosperms (flowering plants) in order of emergence in the evolutionary record. Today angiosperms are the most widespread.
