nonvascular plants
require a moist environment to reproduce, and therefore they straddle the boundary between aquatic and terrestrial life
Nonvascular plants lack conducting structures
They lack true roots, stems, or leaves
Because they must instead rely on slow diffusion to distribute water and other nutrients, nonvascular plants are of limited body size (most less than 2.5 cm tall)
include the hornworts, liverworts, and mosses
