Vascular plants are smaller and grow closer to the ground, while nonvascular plants are typically taller.

Answer 1

Vascular plants have specialized tissues to transport water and nutrients, while nonvascular plants do not.

Explanation: Vascular plants have xylem and phloem for long-distance transport, which allows them to grow taller. Nonvascular plants (like mosses) lack these tissues and are generally small and close to the ground.
