Answer 2

,-, ughh its the hater

Answer 3

Although bryophytes and pteridophytes have water-dependant gametes for fecundation the emergence of conductive vessels in this last group facilitated life in a terrestrial environment. The conductive vessels of the pteridophytes collect water from the moist soil and distribute it to the cells. Bryophytes do not have this option and they depend entirely on the water that reaches the aerial part of the plant and so they need to live in humid or rainy places.

Answer 4

im guessing its A or B...

Answer 5

Well true roots and vascular tissue that allows water to move farther through the plant so that they don't depend on absorption of water held on the plant.

Answer 12

Rhizomes would be comparable to "stems" in the flowering plants. The rhizome contains the conducting tissues, and the conducting tissue carries the water, minerals, and nutrients throughout the plant.

So...yeah :) its D
