Bryophytes and Pteridophytes [vegetative parts of the plant]
Answer
Differences between Bryophytes and Pteridophytes on the basis of vegetative parts of the plant:
| Bryophytes | Pteridophytes |
|---|---|
| Bryophytes have stems and leaves, but no roots. Instead, they have thread—like structures called rhizoids which stick to the surface and absorb water. | Pteridophytes bear well-formed leaves, stems and roots, but do not produce flowers and seeds. Their leaves produce small rounded bodies on their undersurface. These bodies contain tiny spores which get scattered to produce new plants. |
