Vascular have a system that is intricate and the plant can move water to distribute it to the whole plant. Vascular plants are able to grow bigger due to this ability.
Example of this would be a tree or a flower
Non vascular plants are usually small plants that are close to the ground. They do not have a very complex water distribution and for this reason cannot support large growth.
Example of this is moss

Vascular plants have specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients, while non-vascular plants do not. Vascular plants have roots, stems, and leaves, while non-vascular plants lack these structures. Vascular plants can grow taller and have better support compared to non-vascular plants.
It means they do have viens:)<3
Xylem and Phloem. Read up on the difference between vascular and non-vascular plants.
Presence of xylem & phloem in vascular plants and absence of these vascular tissues in non-vascular plants.
mosses are non-vascular plants and ferns are vascular seedless plants
mosses are non-vascular plants and ferns are vascular seedless plants
is it possible for the non vascular plants to grow tall? why?
The two groups are vascular and non-vascular: vascular plants have veins that carry water up the plant (ex. trees, flowers, ect.), and non-vascular plants do not have veins to carry water up the plant (ex. mosses, liverworts, ect.).
The different things between vascular and non-vascular is that; A. Vascular grow taller because they have tissue that is able to transport materials faster to longer distances, and won't break if hit by a strong wind. Think of it like a bundle of straws. A lot stronger and better and transporting materials! B. Non-vascular plants lack true roots, stems, and leaves. They have similar structures that do the same thing though. C. Vascular absorb water and nutrients through their roots and pass it along, non-vascular plants absorb water directly through their cell walls and pass it along from cell to cell. D. Vascular plants grow almost anywhere, while non-vascular plants MUST have a wet environment for reproduction to occur. E. Vascular plants can grow from spores, seeds, AND flowers, while non-vascular plants only use spores.
There are both Vascular and Non-Vascular plants.
You get two pairs for less than double and they don't crease but they do not last as long as the plants. Vascular plants have well defined xylem & phloem and is the characterstic feature of Pteridophytes, Gymnosperms and Angiosperms. Non-vascular plants lack xylem & ploem as in case of Algae, Fungi and Bryophytes.
