Both plants have separate tubular tissues like Xylem and Phloem to transport food, minerals, and water, right? Those are called the vascular plants. So for those that don't show this kind of differentiation of the tissue, they're called the non-vascular plants.
Water and the other nutrients just move through the plants' body, cell by cell. The plants can get water this way but only if the plants' body is no more than a few cells thick.
