Detailed explanation-1: -Mosses are non-vascular plants with about 12, 000 species classified in the Bryophyta.
Detailed explanation-2: -Characteristics of Nonvascular Plants Most bryophytes are small. They not only lack vascular tissues; they also lack true leaves, seeds, and flowers. Instead of roots, they have hair-like rhizoids to anchor them to the ground and to absorb water and minerals (see Figure below).
Detailed explanation-3: -Bryophytes is the informal group name for mosses, liverworts and hornworts. They are non-vascular plants, which means they have no roots or vascular tissue, but instead absorb water and nutrients from the air through their surface (e.g., their leaves).
Detailed explanation-4: -Detailed Solution. Chara is not a Bryophyte. It is a green algae of the family Characeae. Bryophytes are small, non-vascular plants, such as mosses, liverworts, and hornworts.
