Detailed explanation-1: -Mosses are a type of bryophyte, which is a group of non-vascular plants. This means they lack the vascular tissue, known as xylem and phloem, that most plants have for transporting water from roots to leaves and stems. Instead, mosses have rhizoids, or small hair-like appendages that anchor the moss and take in water.

Detailed explanation-2: -The plant body of bryophytes are thallus-like and attached to a substratum by root-like structures called rhizoids. they do not have true root. Rhizoids does the function of anchoring the plant body to the substrate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bryophyta is known as amphibians of the plant kingdom as they can survive both on land and water. They lack fully developed vascular tissue. They do not have true roots rather they have a root-like structure known as rhizoid.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bryophytes have no roots, leaves or stems. Moss and liverworts belong to this group. They are flowerless plants that grow in clumps.

Detailed explanation-5: -Bryophytes is the informal group name for mosses, liverworts and hornworts. They are non-vascular plants, which means they have no roots or vascular tissue, but instead absorb water and nutrients from the air through their surface (e.g., their leaves).
