Cellulose is indigestible by animals because they lack the enzyme Cellulase.

Cellulose is the polysaccharide which is the main constituent of plant cell wall. It consists of chains of glucose monomers. Animals like human beings lack the enzyme Cellulase which is necessary for the digestion of cellulose.  

Hay and grasses are rich in cellulose and therefore, both are indigestible by human beings. Animals like cows and horses also do not possess the enzyme cellulase, but they harbor microbes which help in the digestion of cellulose.

How are the bryophytes and seedless vascular plants alike? how are the bryophytes and seedless vascular plants alike? plants in
Dahasolnce [82]
I believe in both groups , the sperm swim from antheridia to aronia. Both are tied to water by swimming sperm that require water to reach eggs. Neither of them has pollen, seeds, flowers, or fruits. Seedless vascular plants, however, have xylem and phloem, which bryophytes lack. For seedless vascular plants Cells in diploid sporophyte such as fern from undergo meiosis, releasing haploid spores that germinate and develop into gametophytes. Bryophytes reproduce sexually by forming sperm and egg cells within separate haploid male and female gametophytes.
