Mosses are not the only nonvascular plants.The two others are liverworts and hornworts. They grow in the same kinds of surroundings as mosses, sometimes among them. But liverworts and hornworts are even smaller than mosses and they don't grow in such large clumps. Only the most careful observers notice them.You would need a hand lens to see the structures of these tiny plants.

∙ 9y agoPlants belonging to Algae, fungi and bryophyta groups are non-vascular plants. Since these plants do not have vascular system in the form of xylem and phloem. Plants of Pteridophyta, Gymnosperms and Angiosperms groups are vascular in nature.

Are mosses vascular or nonvascular?
Mosses are non-vascular because they have no vascular tissue inside of them. That is why mosses need to live near moist areas so they can absorb the water directly because they don't have long roots to absorb the water.
Sensitive plants is vascular?
Yes, the sensitive plant, more commonly called the TickleMe Plant, is a vascular plant.Rrelated Information:TickleMe Plants are flowering plants, producing cotton candy like pink flowers.All flowering plants are angiosperms. All angiosperms are vascular plants.Vascular plants like the TickleMe, have specialized tissue that allows the plant to circulate chemicals throughout the plant.The TickleMe Plant closes its leaves and lowers its branches when touched. This is the result of the increased pressure in its cells, made possible in part by the vascular tissue.
The male reproductive structure of nonvascular plants is called?
The female gametophyte structure that produces eggs in nonvascular plants are called archegonia. The male structure that produces sperm are called antheridia. A gametophyte is the part of the plant that is responsible for creating gametes AKA sexual reproductive cell (sperm or egg). A nonvascular plant is a plant that isn't capable of transporting water and nutrients throughout itself very far because it lacks the proper vessels and veins for the transport. This causes these plants to be small in size so the plant doesn't have to transport the water and nutrients very far.
Vascular plants can grow taller than nonvascular plants true or false?
True because the tissues allow better growth.
Which plant does not have tubes?
Mosses do not have tubes for moving nutrients and water. They also do not have any true leaves, stems, or roots. Nonvascular plants also do not have transport tubes.

Why would nonvascular plants not have flowers?
Because they are nonvascular plants and they don't grow because they are dead
