Solution

The correct option is B False
Bryophyta is known as amphibians of the plant kingdom as they can survive both on land and water. They lack fully developed vascular tissue. They do not have true roots rather they have a root-like structure known as rhizoid. They originate from lower epidermal cells of bryophytes. They are similar in function to root as it helps in the absorption of water.
