- What is the characteristic that distinguishes bryophytes from the other plant phyla? Answers: They do not have embryos. They do not have vascular tissue. They have flowers. They have fruits. They have lignin in their cell walls. Please explain which answer is the correct one.arrow_forwardByrophytes are usually found in areas that are very wet or damp at least part of the year. Which of the following statements describes characteristics of byrophytes that make them dependent on water? State all that numbers that apply. 1. They have a dominant gametophyte phase. 2. They have swimming sperm that need water so they can swim to fertilize the eggs of other nearby plants. 3. They do not have lignin-stiffened vascular tissue or roots to effectively distribute water throughout the plant.arrow_forwardIs the sporophyte of mosses ever independent of the gametophyte?

In one feature, certain stems grow longer than others, and thus, rather than having dichotomous branching, they have branching (displayed especially by Pertica). Simultaneously, the positioning of branches became more and .arrow_forward
