Question

Vascular plants differ from bryophytes (non-vascular plants) in that…(mark all that apply)

Sporophytes of vascular plants can grow tall, whereas sporophytes of bryophytes cannot

Vascular plants all produce flowers, whereas bryophytes do not

Vascular plants have embryos; bryophytes do not

Sporophytes of vascular plants have roots that contain vascular tissue, whereas sporophytes of bryophytes have no roots

Sporophytes of vascular plants produce many sporangia, where as sporophytes of bryophytes each produce only one sporangium

Vascular plants have true leaves, whereas bryophytes do not

Bryophytes have embryos; vascular plants do not

All vascular plants shed seeds, whereas all bryophytes shed spores

Vascular plants have well developed vascular tissue (xylem and phloem), whereas bryophytes do not

Sporophytes of vascular plants become nutritionally independent of the parent gametophyte, whereas sporophytes of bryophytes do not
