Certainly! Here's how the characteristics can be sorted into those true of bryophytes and those true of modern land plants:
**Bryophytes:**
- Grow close to the ground
- Grow in dense mats
- The first plants on land
- Anchored in the soil by roots (note: while bryophytes do not have true roots, they have structures called rhizoids that help anchor them)
**Modern Land Plants:**
- Made of cells containing lignin
- Have vascular tissue to transport water and nutrients
This categorization reflects the key differences between bryophytes (like mosses) and more advanced land plants (like ferns, gymnosperms, and angiosperms).
