I believe that would be xylem and phloem.
Vascular plants can grow taller because they have specialized tissues for structural support and water transport. They can also thrive in drier environments since they have efficient water-conducting tissues that help with water absorption and retention.
Plants without vascular tissue, like mosses and liverworts, rely on diffusion to transport materials from cell to cell. They are generally small in size and grow in damp environments where water and nutrients can easily reach all parts of the plant.
They have no true roots, stems, or leaves, shorter because vascular tissue can transport things higher. Nonvascular plants can't transport the mineral and substances needed to survive into a tall plant. Your welcome :)
It is to allow substances like dissolved mineral salts and water to be taken in and transport around the plant so that the plant is able to produce food ( sucrose and amino acids ), to keep the plant surviving.
Plants with specialized tissues for transporting water include vascular plants, such as angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (conifers). These plants have xylem tissue that transports water and minerals from the roots to the leaves using capillary action. Examples include trees, shrubs, and flowering plants.
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.
Non-vascular plants lack true roots, stems, and leaves. They also do not have a vascular system for transporting water and nutrients.
Vascular plants can grow taller because they have specialized tissues for structural support and water transport. They can also thrive in drier environments since they have efficient water-conducting tissues that help with water absorption and retention.
what is the answer?
Plants without vascular tissue, like mosses and liverworts, rely on diffusion to transport materials from cell to cell. They are generally small in size and grow in damp environments where water and nutrients can easily reach all parts of the plant.
vascular plants
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 Copied From: YAHOOANSWERS.COM Original Author: LUCKYNUMBA23 Notes: I CHANGED A FEW THINGS ON THIS BUT I DID COPY IT AND PASTE IT...

Plants that don't have vascular tissue used to grow up. An example would be moss on a log or rock.
These vascular tissues do two things that are essential for vascular plant survival and erect posture on land.Xylem. This vascular tissue brings water from the roots to the leaves of the plant. Turgor pressure from this water on cell walls helps keep plants erect. Aa adaption of vascular plants. The water in the leaves is used in the process of photosynthesis.Phloem. This vascular tissue takes the sugar manufactured in the leaves to everywhere in the plant that this sugar is needed. For food energy and for building material.
