Nonvascular Plant

A low-growing plant that lacks true vascular tissue, like moss
Real World Example
Imagine trying to move furniture around your house without any hallways or doorways to guide you. Just like this scenario, a nonvascular plant, such as moss, lacks the internal "hallways" or channels (vascular tissue) to efficiently transport water and nutrients throughout its structure. In this analogy, the hallways and doorways represent the vascular tissues in plants, and just as moving furniture without them would require more effort and creativity, nonvascular plants rely on direct absorption and diffusion to get what they need, often resulting in their low-growing, spread-out form.
