HOPE THIS HELPS U
BRYOPHYTA ; They are amphibians.
◆They are not much advanced then Pteridolhyta
◆ Stem and leaf can be differentiated, but roots are absent.
◆Vascular bundle is absent or poorly developed.
◆ Reproduction occurs by spores.
◆Examples : Riccia, Marchantia and Moss (funaria), etc.
PTERIDOPHYTA ; They are not amphibians.
◆They are more advanced then Bryophyata.
◆ Roots, stems and leaves can be differentiated properly.
◆ Vascular bundle are present, but more developed then Bryophyta.
