Plants without SeedsChapter 10 Section 2
Nonvascular Plants
• Three major groups: mosses; liverworts, and hornworts.
• Low-growing plants live in moist areas where they can absorb water and other nutrients directly from their environment.
Pictures:
Mosses
• Rhizoids (root-like structures) anchor the moss and absorb water/nutrients from the soil.
Liverworts
• They grow on moist rocks or soil along the side of streams.
• Gametophyte looks like human liver• Hornworts live in moist soil mixed with grass.
They have horn shaped sporophytes.
Seedless Vascular plants
• Ferns, horsetails, and club moss have true vascular tissue.- DO NOT PRODUCE SEEDS.
• They produce spores. (water needs to be available)
