Solution

The correct option is A Bryophytes
Among Cryptogams, thallophytes or algae are aquatic organisms. The next division, bryophytes, were the first land inhabiting plants. They grow in damp areas because they require water for fertilization. Hence, they are called as the amphibians of the plant kingdom.
