Explanation:
Amphibians are the organisms that live on both land and in water. Bryophytes are called amphibians of the plant kingdom because these plants live in soil but they need water for asexual reproduction.
They are mostly found on marshy and wetlands where they can adapt to survive with both water nutrients and soil nutrients. Asexual reproduction is the main method of reproduction in bryophytes.
It occurs through the production of spores. Though bryophytes live on the land, they require water for fertilization.
The sperms of bryophytes swim through water to the eggs with the help of their flagella. So bryophytes are called amphibians of the plant kingdom.
Bryophytes have distinguished plant body like leaf structures, stem. But they lack a vascular arrangement for the carrying substances through the plant body. Bryophytes originate in both land and aquatic environments, therefore are called amphibians of the plant kingdom.
Polarity– all epithelia have an apical surface and a lower attached basal surface that differ in structure and function. ...
Specialized contacts– epithelial cells fit close together and form continuous sheets (except in the case of glandular epithelia.
