Describe the difference between a vascular plant life cycle and a nonvascular plant life cycle?

In term of reproduction within the life cycle to main difference is that seed plants spread seed in order to reproduce whereas seedless vascular plants spread spores in order to continue the life cycle.


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 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.


What are the 2 main methods of reproduction?

The two main methods of reproduction are sexual reproduction, which involves the fusion of gametes from two parent organisms, and asexual reproduction, which involves the creation of offspring from a single parent organism without the involvement of gametes.


What is a plant kingdom divided into two mayor groups?

The plant kingdom is divided into two major groups: vascular plants (plants with specialized tissues for conducting water and nutrients) and nonvascular plants (plants without specialized tissues for water and nutrient transport). Vascular plants include trees, flowers, and ferns, while nonvascular plants include mosses and liverworts.

What is the 2 subgroups for a plant kingdom?

The two main subgroups for the plant kingdom are vascular plants and nonvascular plants. Vascular plants have specialized tissues for transporting nutrients and water, while nonvascular plants do not have these tissues and typically rely on other methods for nutrient uptake and transport.

How does plant cell reproduction differ from animal cell reproduction?

the main difference is that animal cells have centrolls that help in the process of division and plants do not.


Why is a damp environment so critical to the succes of nonvascular plants?

Because non-vascular plants require water for the movement of their gametes. The main plant body is gametophytic and it requires humidity for better growth.
