What is the main difference between nonvascular plants and vascular plants?

The difference between vascular and non-vacular plants is that, vascular plants have tubes that carry water up the plant/tree, non-vascular plants dont have those in which case, they need to live near water. Vascular plants are considered the "flowering plant", non-vascular plants have spores and don't need to "mate" with another plant to make a new one, they just need to get their seeds off of them the right way. Vascular plants have a system of cells that transport water through the plant, non-vascular plants do not.


Vascular and non-vascular plants?

Vascular plants have specialized tissues that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant, while non-vascular plants do not have these tissues and rely on diffusion for nutrient transport. Vascular plants tend to be larger and more complex in structure, while non-vascular plants are typically smaller and simpler, like mosses and liverworts. Vascular plants include ferns, conifers, and flowering plants, while non-vascular plants include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts.


What does non-vascular mean?

Non-vascular refers to organisms that do not have specialized vascular tissues, such as phloem and xylem, for transporting water, nutrients, and other materials. These organisms rely on other mechanisms like diffusion and osmosis to move substances within their bodies. Non-vascular plants, like mosses and liverworts, are examples of organisms that do not possess vascular tissues.


What do nonvascular plants have that vascular plants don't?

Roots, seeds and true xylem and phloem elements are absent in non-vascular plants.

What is the difference between two groups of plants?

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.).


How do vascular and non-vascular differ?

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.
