Bryophytes are more adapted for moist environments. This is due to the fact that they can live in water-filled places with mild temperatures.

Answer:

Bryophytes

Step-by-step explanation:

Bryophytes are small plants, usually a few inches tall, that preferentially live in moist, humid and shady places due to the absence of nutrient-carrying vessels.

Due to the absence of nutrient-carrying vessels in the bryophytes, water is absorbed from the environment and is transported in these plants from cell to cell throughout the body of the plant. This type of transport is relatively slow and limits the development of large plants. For this reason, bryophytes are always small, short.

Biology states that one thing is certain: if the terrestrial plant has no conductive vessels, it will be small and live in preferably moist and shady environments, for adaptive reasons.
