GYMNOSPERM (produce naked seeds that are only partially
enclosed by tissues - conifers being the largest family). or ANGIOSPERM (produce a covered seed in an ovary
a protected chamber that forms part of the fruit).
The life cycle of a gymnosperm is clearly represented by the white pine, Pinus strobus. Every spring, pollen-bearing male cones appear at the ends of the tree's lower branches, clustered just below the new crop of needles.
Conifers are classified as gymnosperms, which means that they don't produce true flowers or fruits. The word conifer, or 'cone-bearer', indicates that seeds are protected in a cone or a cone-like structure.

Being gymnosperms (they are closer to conifers than to most decidous trees), they are some of the oldest trees on the planet with a reproductive cycle that is, for the most part, invisible.
In dicots and some gymnosperms, the lamina is a thin sheet of green tissue strengthened by the midrib and lateral veins. There are three main types of venation in leaves:
In parallel - veined leaves, the veins run parallel to each other.
The two large divisions in the plant species are flowering plants, angiosperms, or plants with cones, gymnosperms. All other states have flowers for their actual state flower, but Maine decided to be a little different.
Strobilus- The male or female fruiting body of the gymnosperms.
Style- The stalk of a pistil which connects the stigma with the ovary.

Gymnosperms and Angiosperms have sporophytes that are completely independent from the gametophytes. In fact, the gametophyte is now completely dependent on the sporophytes, reduced to a few cells that form the pollen grains and ovules.
