What else can I help you with?
Are house plants vascular?
Yes. All typical house plants transport water and food through veins (phloem and xylem) in their leaves, stems, and roots. Non-vascular plants include "true" mosses, liverworts, and land algae.
what group of plants do NOT have roots or xylem vessels?
Plants with no vascular tissue (i.e. xylem and phloem) are called bryophytes, and include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Algae also lack vascular tissue, and are primarily aquatic (with the exception of lichens).
What advantage does a vascular plant have over a non vascular plant-?
Vascular plants have xylem and phloem, thus allowing the plant to live on land and not only in watery-marshy areas. Vascular plants are also able to grow bigger and taller.
Compare and contrast vascular and nonvascular plants.?
Plants vascular have tubelike structures that carry water, nutrients and substances throughout the plant; Plant non vascular do not have these tubelike structures and use other ways to move water and substances. Terry Abraham, 11 ans
What should be regarded as the single most significant structure leading to rapid success of the so-called higher plants?
seed germination-----------> NovaNet Answervascular bundlesHigher order plants refer to plants have vascular system(think of them as tubes that moves water to their leafs), which allows them to draw water and other nutrients from the ground using xylem and phloem. this is oppose to simpler plants like moss and algae which are called lower order because they evolved very early and are some of the first plants to come out of the oceans and go on land. They cannot live outside of very wet places though because they can't absorb water simply through their "leafs".
Does coral have xylem and phloem?
No, coral is a marine invertebrate and does not have xylem and phloem like land plants. Coral obtains nutrients through simple diffusion and does not have a vascular system for nutrient transport.
Nonvascular plants differ from all other land plants in that they?
Nonvascular plants lack specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients throughout their bodies. This means they rely on diffusion to move water and nutrients from cell to cell. Vascular plants, by contrast, have specialized tissues like xylem and phloem for efficient transport.
Are house plants vascular?
Yes. All typical house plants transport water and food through veins (phloem and xylem) in their leaves, stems, and roots. Non-vascular plants include "true" mosses, liverworts, and land algae.
What was not a challenge for survival of the first land plants?
One of the biggest challenges for survival of the first land plants was establishing a way to transport water and nutrients in the absence of a constant aquatic environment. This led to the evolution of vascular tissues such as xylem and phloem.
How can you classify land plants in two ways?
Land plants can be broadly classed as "vascular" or "non-vascular". Vascular means having dedicated cells to transport water (xylem cells) and food (phloem cells) through the plant structure. Vascular plants (tracheophytes) : vegetables, trees Non-Vascular plants (bryophytes) : mosses and worts
Vascular plants are land plants that have roots, stems, and leaves?
Yes, vascular plants have specialized tissues that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant. These tissues include xylem for water transport and phloem for nutrient transport. This allows vascular plants to grow taller and larger than non-vascular plants.
Do nonvascular plants are better suited to life on land?
Nonvascular plants are not better suited to life on land than vascular plants because they lack specialized tissues for water and nutrient transport. Vascular plants have xylem and phloem which help them to grow taller and access resources more efficiently. Nonvascular plants, such as mosses and liverworts, tend to grow close to the ground in damp environments.
what group of plants do NOT have roots or xylem vessels?
Plants with no vascular tissue (i.e. xylem and phloem) are called bryophytes, and include mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Algae also lack vascular tissue, and are primarily aquatic (with the exception of lichens).
Is English ivy vascular?
Yes, English ivy is vascular. Like all other land plants, English ivy has a vascular system that helps transport water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. This vascular system consists of xylem and phloem tissues.
Compare and contrast bryophytes and tracheophytes?
bryophytes are non vascular plants, they are small and are ecologically persistant, these plants do not form xylem tissue ever tracheophytes are vascular plants, and are composed of xylem and pholem tissues, they are seedless plants and are the very dominant land plants including trees and flowering plants.
What advantage does a vascular plant have over a non vascular plant-?
Vascular plants have xylem and phloem, thus allowing the plant to live on land and not only in watery-marshy areas. Vascular plants are also able to grow bigger and taller.
An adaptation in seedless vascular plants that made them better suited to land than bryophytes is?
The development of vascular tissue, such as xylem and phloem, allowed seedless vascular plants to transport water and nutrients more efficiently, enabling them to grow taller and larger than bryophytes. Additionally, the presence of true leaves and roots in seedless vascular plants helped them to maximize photosynthesis and nutrient absorption from the soil, further enhancing their ability to thrive on land.
