• C. They do not function as leaf and stem
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A They lack vasuclar tissues

In Bryophyta, organs are referred to as "Leaf like' and 'Stem like' and not the true leaf and stem, because leaf and stem have the complex tissues, which perform the water and food conduction. Bryophytes being the lower plants do not have true leaf, stem and roots. They do not have vascular tissue system.
