Pteridophytes has a vascular system which possesses the ability to transport water to the extremities of the foliage. Bryophytes lack this ability so can only grow to a small size or in places with high levels of humidity.
Pteridophytes were more common in the carboniferous period. However, sexual reproduction of phanerogamic plants presents a massive evolutionary advantage over pteridophytes. Consequently they outcompeted them and spread much more widely.
Answering questions already answered on the internet is easy, and I’m a scientist so its not like I’m uncomfortable with jargon. After all, I do perform ketene-aldehyde cycloadditions to produce a variety of 3-hydroxy acid analogues for the macrosynthesis of novel cyclic depsipeptide structures using standard solid phase peptide synthesis, in an effort to modulate the response of the Agr-virulence quorum sensing system in Staphylococcus aureus. I tried looking for guidance for that on the internet, but it appears no one has done it before…
