Answer:

The correct match would be:

1. Cuticle: It is a wax like substance made up of lipids and integrated hydrocarbon polymer usually synthesized by epidermal cells. It prevents or reduces the excessive  loss of water.

2. Gametophyte: It is a sexual phase of plants in which they produce haploid gametes by the process of meiosis.

3. Nonvascular plant: As the name suggests, they are the plants which lack vascular system. They are also known as bryophytes and are divided into three types namely mosses, liverworts and hornworts.

4. Photosynthesis: It is the process by which producers or green plants make their food from carbon dioxide and water with the help of sunlight and chlorophyll.

5. Pollination: It is the process by which pollen grains are transferred from anther to stigma in flowering plants. Air, water, insects etc help in this process.

6. Rhizoids: It  is a filamentous outgrowth found in some lower plants which serves the purpose of anchoring and conduction of water.

7. Sporophytes: These are the diploid plants which produces haploid spores by the process of meiosis.

8. Vascular plants: These are the higher plants which have fully developed vascular system i.e. they contain fully developed and functional xylem and phloem.

The gametophytes are the is the sexual phase present in the life of algae and plants. The haploid gametes are produced from the parents.

The vascular plants are those which have specified tissues for the transport of the minerals and water.    

The bryophytes do not have cuticle present and hence, they absorb the nutrients through their dermis.

The non vascular plants are those which do not have specialized tissue for the transport of water and minerals.

Pollination can be defined as the transfer of the pollen grain from the anther to the stigma of the same or different flower of the same species.

Rhizoids can be defined as the filamentous growth present in lower plants on their underside.

Sporophyte is the reproductive stage in algae and plants when the haploid male and female gametes fuse together to form zygote.

Photosynthesis is the process by which the plants develop their food using the sunlight, water and carbondioxide.

Hence, the given terms and definitions can be matched as follows:
