explain reproduction in gymnosperm
Answers
Explanation:
Fertilization in gymnosperms occurs when pollen grains contact the female ovule and germinate. Sperm cells make their way to the egg inside the ovule and fertilize the egg. In conifer and gnetophytes, sperm cells have no flagella and must reach the egg via the formation of a pollen tube
Gymnosperm, any vascular plant that reproduces by means of an exposed seed, or ovule—unlike angiosperms, or flowering plants, whose seeds are enclosed by mature ovaries, or fruits. The seeds of many gymnosperms (literally “naked seeds”) are borne in cones and are not visible until maturity.Fertilization in gymnosperms occurs when pollen grains contact the female ovule and germinate.
