Algae belong to phylum Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta, Rhodophyta or Bacillariophyta of kingdom Protoctista, whereas mosses belong to class Musci of phylum Bryophyta of kingdom Plantae...CB
Most of the algae live in marine or fresh water, whereas the mosses live in moist, shady terrestrial habitats...CB
Mosses are anchored to the ground by rhizoids and algae are anchored to the substratum by a structure known as the holdfast...CB
There can be unicellular algae but never unicellular mosses...CB
Although algae do not have true body differentiation in to roots, stems, and leaves, mosses have somewhat differentiation in stems and leaves....CB
Alternation of generations is present in mosses, and there is no alternation of generations in algae...CB
Vertebrates are classified variously .Most popular classification divides them in 2 groups , 1 superclass Pisces and super class Tetrapoda . There are other classifications as Agnatha , Gnathstomata , Amniota and Anamniota .
There is controversy, but until it is resolved: traditionally the bryophytes are divided into 3 main groups: Marchantiophyta (liverworts), Bryophyta (mosses), Anthocerotophyta (hornworts). Bryophytes are one of the two main groups of plants. Their distinguishing feature is that they are non-vascular plants. All other plants are vascular. They are spore-producing plants (but not all spore producers are byophytes), and none have flowers.
Rhizoids help bryophytes attach to the substrate. These are hair-like structures that anchor the plants into the soil or other surfaces and also aid in water and nutrient absorption.
Bryophytes are non-vascular plants that lack specialized tissues for water and nutrient transport, while spermatophytes are vascular plants with xylem and phloem for efficient water and nutrient transport. Bryophytes reproduce via spores and require water for fertilization, whereas spermatophytes reproduce via seeds and do not require water for fertilization. Additionally, spermatophytes have true roots, stems, and leaves, while bryophytes lack true roots and stems and have simple leaf-like structures called phyllids.
The three major groups of nonvascular plants are mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. These low-growing plants live in moist environments where they can absorb water and other nutrients directly from their environment.

The smallest group of plants in the plant kingdom is the group of non-vascular plants, specifically mosses (bryophytes). Bryophytes lack true roots, stems, and leaves, and they primarily reproduce via spores rather than seeds. This group is characterized by its simple structure and reliance on water for reproduction and nutrient absorption. Other small plant groups include liverworts and hornworts, but mosses are the most well-known representatives of non-vascular plants.

The main difference between bryophytes and tracheophytes is that bryophytes are non-vascular plants whereas tracheophytes are vascular plants. Both of them have heteromorphic alternation of generation that means the two generations gametophytes and sporophytes are morphologically as well as cytologically different. in bryophytes gametophyte generation is more prominent in which male and female gametes fuse to each other to form zygote which develops into well protected embryo, while in tracheophytes, sporophytes generation is more dominant and gametophyte generation is very small and inconspicuous.
They require moisture for fertilization to occur. Their sperm are flagellated.
The reproductive structures of bryophytes are called gametangia. These structures produce the gametes (sperm and egg) necessary for sexual reproduction in bryophytes. Gametangia are typically found at the tips of the gametophyte plant.
Bryophytes are land plants that lack a true vascular system. This division includes liverworts, hornworts and mosses. Human uses for these plants are few, beyond decoration. Some varieties are edible. Other bryophytes have been used for air-purification in a manner similar to vascular plants. They are prevalent in many ecosystems and an important part of the food chain.

Pioneer Species. Mosses are bryophytes and are often considered a "pioneer species" that will establish itself first in a forest that has been cleared by a forest fire. Ferns and other vascular plants are the "fuel" of the fires and burn out. Then when the forest begins to grow again, the non-vascular plants like the mosses (bryophytes) will grow first.
