Question:
why are roots,stems and leaves are called "true" in some plants and not in thallophyta?
Answer:

Hi there!

The anatomical features of structures found in thallophytes are not like that of the higher plants but still they perform similar functions. Thus, they simply resemble the structures of higher plants.

Therefore, they are named differently.

Leaf-like structures - phylloids

Root-like structures - rhizoids

Stem-like structures - cauloid

Thanks
