Bryophytes

 

Bryophytes are a group of non-vascular, seedless land plants—comprising mosses, liverworts, and hornworts—that thrive in moist, shaded environments. As the most primitive land plants, they lack true roots, stems, or leaves, relying on rhizoids for anchorage and water absorption via osmosis

. They possess a dominant gametophyte generation, reproduce via spores, and are known as "amphibians of the plant kingdom" because they require water for fertilization
