What adaptions allow vascular plants to grow larger than nonvascular plants?

Question

read other questions by me for details.

Answer 1

Vascular plants have lignified tissues that gives them physical support. Lignin gives the hard surface of plants that let them grow taller than nonvascular plants.
Vascular plants also have vascular tissues : xylem and phloem that transport nutrients from roots to shoots and vice versa. While non-vascular plants don't have tissues that transport nutrients from and to different parts of the plant

Answer 2

Vascular plants have vascular tissue (xylem and phloem) which conducts water and nutrients from the roots throughout the entire plant. Therefore, they can grow quite tall and still all cells can obtain water and nutrients.

Nonvascular plants do not have xylem or phloem, so they have to remain small for water and nutrients to reach all the cells in the plant.

Think of vascular tissue as a highway system that allows things to be transported over a larger space.

Answer 3

When a plant is vascular, it has xylem and phloem - tubes that are means of transporting water and nutrients like nitrogen and phosphate from the roots where they are absorbed, to the leaves, where these can be used in photosynthesis to make sugar, and transporting the sugar and food produced in the leaves to be moved to other parts of the plant where they can be used to grow larger (closer to the sun), or more leaves, etc. It is a large advantage over non-vascular plants which can only move water, etc. by capillary action.

it has xylem and phloem
