A. Damp areas with lots of shade
B. Sunny, dry areas
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

Mosses grow in damp areas with lots of shade. Because they are nonvascular plants, they do not have roots or tissue to bring water up through the whole plant. They must conserve water and absorb it from their surroundings.

On the other hand, mosses cannot live in sunny, dry areas. They would dry up from lack of water because they do not have any vascular tissue to send water throughout the plant.
