AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -In contrast, the megaphylls have broader leaves, and their venation pattern is complex; the vascular tissues in these leaves are multiple, which are either arranged parallelly or in random branched patterns.

Detailed explanation-2: -Lycophytes have microphylls, while ferns and other vascular plants (gymnosperms and angiosperms) have megaphylls.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mosses and liverworts are small, primitive, non-vascular plants. They lack the conductive tissue most plants use to transport water and nutrients. Instead, moisture is absorbed directly into cells by osmosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -The leaves of lycophytes are microphylls. The leaves of the Lycophyta each have a single unbranched vein, or strand of vascular tissue, which supplies the leaf with water and distributes manufactured nutrients to other portions of the plant.
