A scientist has discovered a new plant species in the Amazon rainforest. She tells her fellow scientists that the plant she has found produces a cone. What might they say about how this plant is different from an angiosperm?



Answer :

Angiosperms reproduce with some sort of fruit in the process (it isn't always edible). However, gymnosperms can have cones that release seeds through them. Therefore, the difference is that they reproduce differently.

Answer & explanation:

Conifers are part of the gymnosperm group, and their first feature is that their strobiles are well-developed, known as cones (which names this type of plant), while angiosperms have the flowers, which attract pollinating animals such as insects and birds.

Gymnosperms have "naked seeds" not inserted in a fruit, while angiosperms produce fruits, often used as attractants to animals, which aid in the dispersal of seeds as they feed on the fruits.

In addition, both have for pollen tube fertilization, but gymnosperms depend primarily on wind pollination.
