BIOMOLECULES AND ENZYMES

Detailed explanation-1: -Nonvascular plants like mosses, lichens, and liverworts are the opposite of vascular plants. They do not have vascular tubes to carry nutrients and water from the soil. Instead, they act like sponges soaking up any water that forms on their surfaces.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Non-vascular plants such as liverworts and mosses move water and nutrients by osmosis and diffusion. Because non-vascular plants are small (typically one cell thick) they do not need conducting tissues and a complex system to move water; whereas vascular plants are large, and need a more complex system.

Detailed explanation-4: -Non-vascular plants are those without a vascular system (that is they lack xylem and phloem ) and grow from spores. They do not have roots, stems, or leaves (although the lobes of some liverworts can look like leaves). Some non-vascular plants however do possess specialized tissues for internal transport of water.
