Answer:
This group of plants is called the ‘amphibians’ of the plant kingdom because they grow in moist soil but need water for reproduction.
These plants are thalloid, multicellular and autotrophic.
They reproduce by spore formation.
The structure of the plant body of bryophytes is flat, ribbon-like long, without true roots, stem and leaves.
Instead, they have stem-like or leaf-like parts and root-like rhizoids.
They do not have specific tissues for conduction of food and water. Examples are Moss (Funaria), Marchantia, Anthoceros, Riccia, etc.
