A panda is not a plant; it is a mammal. Therefore, the terms vascular and non-vascular do not apply to pandas. Vascular plants have specialized tissues for transporting water and nutrients, while non-vascular plants do not. Pandas primarily feed on bamboo, which is a type of vascular plant.

Is a conifer a vascular plant?

Yes, all trees are vascular. The rings inside them are vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) as are the veins in there leaves and roots. Vascular tissue is tubing. All plants are vascular except algae, mosses, liverworts, and hornworts.


Are animals vascular or non-vascular?

Vascular and non-vascular terminology only applies to plants. Vascular tissue is the water carrying xylem and the sugar transporting phloem, which some plants do not use as they are water plants, or semi-water plants. A virus contains genetic material surrounded by a protein capsid, generally. Some contain reverse transcriptase enzymes, but none could be termed vascular, or non-vascular.

What does non nonvascular mean?

Non-vascular plants is a general term for those plants without a vascular system (xylem and phloem). Although non-vascular plants lack these particular tissues, a number of non-vascular plants possess tissues specialized for internal transport of water. Non-vascular plants have no roots, stems, or leaves, since each of these structures is defined as containing vascular tissue. The lobes (rounded parts) of the liverwort may look like leaves, but they are not true leaves because they have no xylem or phloem. Likewise, mosses and algae have no such tissues. All plants have a life cycle with an alternation of generations between a diploid sporophyte and a haploid gametophyte, but nonvascular plants include the only plants that have a dominant gametophyte generation. In these plants, the sporophytes grow attached and are dependent on gametophytes for taking in water and other materials. Non-vascular plants grow from spores.
