Question

Which group of Bryophytes develop multicellular rhizoids?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Bryopsida

In absence of roots, thallus absorb water and minerals directly from ground or atmosphere. Hence, they can thrive only on moist places. In the above options the right option is Bryopsida. Hepatocopsida is the class of Bryophytes, which have dorsiventrally flattened lobed plant body with unicellular rhizoids. The other two classes belongs to division Pteridophyta.
