Answer:

They have no vascular system.

Explanation:

Vascular system contains an important feature they have series of tubes which helps to transport nutrients, and water over a distance in plants. The vascular system of phloem, and xylem allows trees (such as redwood) to grow a hundred feet tall.

Mosses do not have vascular system. Without the vascular system liverworts, and mosses are not able to grow large. Mosses are rarely one inch in height. Mosses are small flowerless waxy plants with no stem, and leaves.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the relation between frequency, wavelength energy and velocity of a wave t
Sedbober [7]

The statement that correctly describes the relation in the question is ; ( A ) As wavelength decreases, frequency increases, energy increases and the speed remains the same.

The Frequency of a wave travelling in a medium is directly proportional to the energy produced by the wave and inversely proportional to the wavelength of the wave.  

Changes in the wavelength and frequency of a wave has no effect on the wave speed. but has an effect on the energy produced by the wave. therefore the wave speed remains constant regardless of the changes in wavelength and frequency

Hence we can conclude that   As wavelength decreases, frequency increases, energy increases and the speed remains the same.
