Nonvascular plants
A
reproduce by making seeds
B
grow close to the ground
C
are tall and thin
D
live in dry places and have long roots
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Nonvascular plants lack vascular tissue. Vascular tissue provides some type of support and structure to vascular plants. Nonvascular plants absorb water and nutrients from the ground so they remain close to the ground to access water.

Detailed explanation-2: -They lack a vascular system (plumbing system) to move water and nutrients throughout the plant. For this reason, they grow close to the ground to absorb water and nutrients. Seedless plants also rely on free-standing water for reproduction. A sperm produced by a male must swim through rainwater or dew to reach an egg.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nonvascular plants survive only in moist habitats. They do not have leaves, roots, or stems, they are low-growing plants, and they reproduce by forming spores.
