Answer 2

Answer: absence of xylem and phloem

The presence of the xylem and phloem is the determining factor whether a plant is vascular or non-vascular. Phloem in vascular plants transport food while xylem transports the water. Mosses, liverworts and hornworts are bryophytes because they are non-vascular plants.
