Detailed explanation-1: -Complete answer: Cryptogams are the lower plants that reproduce by spores, without flowers and seeds. The reproductive part of these plants is generally hidden hence they are represented as the non-seed-bearing plants. They vegetatively reproduce by cell division or fragmentation and asexually by the means of spores.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some plants don’t produce flowers and seeds. Plants such as ferns and mosses are called nonflowering plants and produce spores instead of seeds. There is also another group called the Fungi, that include mushrooms, and these also reproduce by spores.
Detailed explanation-3: -Non-flowering plants mostly fall into one of these groups: ferns, liverworts, mosses, hornworts, whisk ferns, club mosses, horsetails, conifers, cycads, and ginkgo.
Detailed explanation-4: -The plants that do not form flowers and reproduce through spores are called non-flowering plants. Cryptogams are flowerless and seedless plants.
Detailed explanation-5: -Note: Pteridophytes are called vascular cryptogams because they contain specialized structures for water transport like xylem and phloem. Pteridophytes are the most advanced flowerless and seedless plants.
