Detailed explanation-1: -Pteridophyta is a group of non-seed forming, vascular cryptogams, i.e., these contain vascular tissues for the conduction of minerals and water but do not produce seeds.
Detailed explanation-2: -The ferns, gymnosperms, and flowering plants are all vascular plants. Because they possess vascular tissues, these plants have true stems, leaves, and roots.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ferns are seedless, vascular plants. They contain two types of vascular tissue that are needed to move substances throughout the plant.
Detailed explanation-4: -The vascular tissue, epidermis with cuticle, and stomata of ferns are adaptations to terrestrial life which occur in vascular plants but not in nonvascular plants such as mosses.
Detailed explanation-5: -Ferns are the most advanced group of seedless vascular plants. They are distinguished by large leaves called fronds and small sporangia-containing structures called sori, which are found on the underside of the fronds.
