Explain how rootlike rhizoids differ from true roots.?

Most plants have roots, but there are some


exceptions. The exceptions are bryophytes


and the groups of green algae that are


classified as plants. Bryophytes have rootlike


structures called rhizoids for absorbing


water, but because rhizoids lack vascular


tissue they are not considered roots.
