Into what 2 large groups of plants traditionally divided and what is the main difference?
Plants are traditionally divided into two large groups: non-vascular plants and vascular plants. Non-vascular plants, such as mosses, lack specialized structures for transporting water and nutrients, while vascular plants, including ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms, possess vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) that facilitate the movement of water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. This distinction influences their size, habitat, and overall structure.
Are mushrooms vascular?
no they are not non vascular
Can nonvascular plants become very large and tall because of their suppotr system?
No, nonvascular plants cannot become very large and tall like vascular plants because they lack a vascular system to transport water and nutrients throughout their structure. This limits their ability to grow tall since they rely on direct diffusion for essential substances.
Why can't non-vascular plants grow tall?
Nothing would 'happen.' There are many herbaceous plants that grow to over 2 meters, for example Giant Hogweed and Gunera.
What characteristics do the three groups of novascular plants share?
1. The vascular plants have xylem and phloem tissues for conduction 2. Plant body is differentiated into root, stem and leaves. 3. Sporophytic plant body is more pronounced and dominant.
Can vascular plants grow to be quite large?
yes vascular plants can grow to be quite large because they have roots or stems
True or false the two large groups of plants are those that have leaves and those that do not have leaves?
False. Two large groups of plants could be seed plants and seedless plants, or vascular and nonvascular plants. All plants have leaves of some kind or another.
Are redwoods vascular or non-vascular plants?
Redwoods are vascular plants. Vascular plants have tissues that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant, allowing them to grow tall and large. Redwoods have specialized vascular tissues called xylem and phloem that enable them to transport water, minerals, and sugars.

Plants are traditionally divided into two large groups: non-vascular plants and vascular plants. Non-vascular plants, such as mosses, lack specialized structures for transporting water and nutrients, while vascular plants, including ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms, possess vascular tissues (xylem and phloem) that facilitate the movement of water, nutrients, and sugars throughout the plant. This distinction influences their size, habitat, and overall structure.
What is the main difference between the two large groups of plants?
vascular and nonvascular
Why are non vascular plants small?
Non-vascular plants are small because they lack vascular tissues like xylem and phloem, which are essential for transporting water and nutrients throughout the plant. Without this efficient transport system, non-vascular plants are limited in their ability to grow large and complex structures. Their small size allows for easier absorption of water and nutrients directly from the environment through diffusion.
What do you call a plant without a flower?
flowering plants are part of a large group called angiosperms. They are the only (and most recently evolved group) to have flowers. Nonflowering plants are gymnosperms, seedless vascular plants (like ferns) and bryophytes.
Are roses vascular plant or non vascular?
Roses are among the most beautiful and familiar examples of vascular plants. Like other vascular plants, a rose bush has roots, leaves and a network of vascular tissue running throughout the plant.
How can you identify a lycophte?
-Vascular Plants ; Moist Habitats -Large part of vegetation in the Paleozoic forest
Scientists today divide plants into two large groupsd basedv on?
scientists today divide plants into two large groups based onwhat are the two large groups of plants Edited answer: Based on vasculature, the plant kingdom is divided into- 1. Vascular and 2. Non-vascular plants.
What structural adaptation allows pterophytes to grow larger than bryophyte?
It's because pterophytes are vascular plants that contains vascular tissues which support growth. Bryophytes are nonvascular plants, they don't have vascular tissues that's why it doesn't grow too large. ! Vanessa =D
What is vascular plant and nonvascular plant?
Vascular plants are plants that have transport tissues for carrying water, nutrients, and sugar to plant cells. Because they have transport tissues, many vascular plants can become very large. An example of a vascular plant is a full grown tree. The transport tissues form a system of tubes tat extends from the roots to all parts of the plant. These tubes are made up of two kinds of tissue: xylem and phloem. Xylem tissue carries water and nutrients from the roots to the leaves. Phloem tissue carries sugar from the leaves to other cells of the plants. Non vascular plants are plants that lack tissues that transport water, nutrients, and sugar. Some example of non vascular plants are mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. Non vascular plants don't have tissues to carry the materials that cells need to stay healthy. Because of this, they don't grow very large. These plants don't have true roots to absorb water. Instead, each cell absorbs the water and nutrients it needs directly from the soil or air. Because they tend to live very close together, the cells of these plants may also get materials they need from neighboring plant cells.
