Bryophytes
Habitat:
Moist areas such as forests and creeks
Milestones:
Eukaryotic
Anatomical Features:
-Have rhizoids instead of roots
-Grow shortbecause they are lacking vascular tissue
Eating and Fleeting:
They are autotrophic and have green, nonvascular tissueto perform photosynthesis.
Symmetry:
N/A
Mobility:
Immobile most of life, except when travelling as spores.
Reproduction:
Asexually reproduce with spores.
Development:
When spores begin to grow, it sends out a long runner called a protonema. Rhizoids grow down from these to form many new plants.
Examples:
-Marchantia polymorpha
-Marchantia berteroana
-Leiosporoceros dussii
Other Information:
-Produce neither flowers nor seeds.
