They are both vascular plants
B
they both make their own food
C
they are both nonvascular plants
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -All plants with green leaves, from the tiniest mosses to towering fir trees, synthesize, or create, their own food through photosynthesis. Algae, phytoplankton, and some bacteria also perform photosynthesis. Some rare autotrophs produce food through a process called chemosynthesis, rather than through photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ferns, algae, and moss are all able to make their own food from the sun’s energy. They all live by water, but there are differences in the way they get water.

Detailed explanation-3: -Commensalistic symbiosis is when one organism benefits while the other is neither helped nor harmed. For example, moss growing on the bark of the oaks at the Table Rocks benefits by having a surface to grow on, while the oaks are not affected.
