Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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.
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.
