Bryophytes vs Pteridophytes (Similarities and Difference between Bryophytes and Pteridophytes) Bryophytes are most primitive land plants predominantly grow in moist and shaded places.Bryophytes are known as the Amphibians of Plant Kingdom since water is essential for the completion of their life cycle.The Bryophytes includes three groups of plants such as … a) They produce spores. The key difference between Bryophytes and Ferns is that the bryophytes are nonvascular plants having a dominant gametophyte generation while the ferns are vascular plants having a dominant sporophyte generation.. (6) In gymnosperms, megaspores remain in the megasporangium, whereas, in pteridophytes they are shed from the sporangia and develop into independent female prothallus.

b) Bryophytes. Which of the following best compares gymnosperms and pteridophytes? b) Bryophytes. In pteridophytes, vessels in xylem and companion cells in phloem are absent. B- They are both vascular plants, but gymnosperms produce cones and … Pteridophytes have a vascular system (phloem and xylem tissues) but produce spores for reproduction, unlike other higher plants. (c) Why the life cycle of Gymnosperm is diplontic. Pteridophyte are vascular plants i.e., plants with xylem and phloem, that reproduce and disperse via spores. a) Pteridophytes. 2. c) bryophytes. Difference between Bryophytes and Pteridophytes Bryophytes : The term bryophyta is used as a collective name to represent a group of plants that includes the mosses (musci), hornworts and liverworts (Hepaticae) growing predominantly in amphibious environment. a) bear flower. Bryophytes vs Pteridophytes (Similarities and Difference between Bryophytes and Pteridophytes) Bryophytes are most primitive land plants predominantly grow in moist and shaded places.Bryophytes are known as the Amphibians of Plant Kingdom since water is essential for the completion of their life cycle.The Bryophytes includes three groups of plants such as Liverworts, Hornworts and Mosses. Bryophytes are traditional mosses, liverworts and hornworts, generally small low-lying and with a dominant gametophyte phase. 6. a) Pteridophytes . Bryophytes.

Bryophytes that include Moses are referred to as ‘lower plants because they do not have a true vascular system. 4. 2. The study of pteridophytes is known as pteridology. The unique feature of bryophytes compared to other green plant group is that. Pteridophytes:-it include horstell and ferns. These are found in cool,damp and shady places.these are … 3. Which of the following is the amphibian of the plant kingdom? 5. Biology 3B Laboratory Nonvascular and Seedless Vascular Plants Objectives • To understand the general systematic relationships of the Bryophytes and Pteridophytes • Learn the basic plant life cycle, “alternation of generations” • Learn the gametophyte dominant life cycle of bryophytes • Recognize members of the “bryophytes”

Bryophytes are embryophytes that are non-vascular i.e., they have no xylem and phloem. (6) In gymnosperms, megaspores remain in the megasporangium, whereas, in pteridophytes they are shed from the sporangia and develop into independent female prothallus.

b) exhibit no vascular tissue.

Therefore pteridophytes are also called vascular cryptogams. Compare and contrast the properties of Pteridophytes from other plants. all embryophytes that are non-vascular (no xylem and phloem) Kingdom: Plantae; Characteristics: they have tissues and enclosed reproductive systems, lack vascular tissue that circulates liquids, neither have flowers nor produce seeds, therefore reproduce through spores
