The answer is; Bryophytes are nonvascular plants, and pteridophytes are seedless vascular plants

Pteridophytes have a vascular system (phloem and xylem tissues) but produce spores for reproduction, unlike other higher plants. An example of pteridophytes is the fern. Bryophytes that include Moses are referred to as ‘lower plants because they do not have a true vascular system.
