About 470 million years ago the first plants to evolve these features began to grow out of the water. The mosses and liverworts of today are similar to these early plants. They, like their ancient cousins, still need water in order to reproduce, since the sperm has to swim to the egg.

What are 3 examples of nonvascular plants?
Three examples of nonvascular plants are mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. These plants lack specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients, so they are typically small and grow close to the ground in moist environments. Nonvascular plants reproduce through spores rather than seeds.
What are mosses and their relatives generally called?
