Answer:
(c) Liverworts
The lower Bryophytes are called Liverworts.
Explanation:
Lower bryophytes include liverworts. In leaves, there is only one layer of cells. Liverworts, like mosses, are terrestrial plants with no vascular system. They are limited in size due to the lack of vein like tubes that conduct moisture and nutrients throughout the plant. They, like ferns, produce spores rather than seeds. Their reproduction requires them to be in wet or moist environments.
Liverworts are found all over the world, but they are most common in the tropics. Thallose liverworts, which are branching and ribbonlike, are commonly found on moist soil or damp rocks, whereas leafy liverworts are found in similar habitats as well as on damp tree trunks.
