Lesson 13 - Seedless Plants

Introduction

Scientists believe that seedless plants first appeared on Earth about 400 million years ago. Such seedless plants include ferns, mosses, horsetails, and liverworts. These plants have stems, roots, and leaves like other plants, but since they do not produce flowers, they have no seeds. Seedless plants, however, have specialized tissues for moving water and food around inside the plant. However, some seedless plants lack a system of retaining and transporting water.
