Detailed explanation-1: -Vascular plants are also known as tracheophytes. They include pteridophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms. Non-vascular plants lack a specialised vascular system for transporting water and nutrients. They may contain simple structures that may specialise to perform transportation, e.g. algae and bryophytes.
Detailed explanation-2: -The vascular plants have two types of seed plants, including gymnosperms and angiosperms.
Detailed explanation-3: -The plant world is conveniently separated into two major groups: nonvascular plants and vascular plants. The nonvascular plants include the bryophytes, while the vascular plants include the ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms (see Chapter 19).
Detailed explanation-4: -Vascular plants include the clubmosses, horsetails, ferns, gymnosperms (including conifers), and angiosperms (flowering plants). Scientific names for the group include Tracheophyta, Tracheobionta and Equisetopsida sensu lato.
