Question

the cells in vascular and nonvascular plants are both able to get water but nonvascular plants have different methods than vascular plants how do these differences affect the height of the plants in 3 sentences explain this and be sure to describe how each type of plant gets water to its cells

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Vascular plants have specialized tissues like xylem and phloem that transport water and nutrients throughout the plant, allowing them to grow taller than nonvascular plants. Vascular plants take up water through their roots and distribute it upwards through the xylem, while nonvascular plants like mosses and liverworts rely on simple diffusion and capillary action to absorb water directly into their cells, limiting their height potential. The presence of vascular tissues in plants enables them to efficiently transport water and nutrients, providing structural support for taller growth compared to nonvascular plants.
