HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Moss and leafy liverwort leaves are generally just one cell thick.

Detailed explanation-3: -They don’t have roots Their main function is anchoring the plant to rock, bark or soil. So without roots, some moss suck nutrients up through the rhizoids and others draw in moisture and minerals from rain and the water around them through their highly absorbent surfaces.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mosses typically form dense green clumps or mats, often in damp or shady locations. The individual plants are usually composed of simple leaves that are generally only one cell thick, attached to a stem that may be branched or unbranched and has only a limited role in conducting water and nutrients.
