General characters of angiosperm and gymnosperm
Answers
Angiosperms are flowering plants .
If you’re looking for characteristics then here they are -
Their seeds are always enclosed inside the fruit .
If we talk about pollination it generally occurs through wind , water , or insects i.e. anemophily , hydrophily , zoophily .
Flower consists of calyx , corolla usually termed as non- essential whorls and androecium and gynoecium are termed as essential ones .
Male gametes are nonmotile in angiosperms and they’re carried to female gamete by pollen tube .
Double fertilization is characteristic feature of angiosperms .
One male gamete fuses with egg to form zygote and the other fuses with secondary nucleus for the formation of endosperm .
If you are talking about non - flowering i.e. gymnosperms so they are basically -
Having heterosporous life cycle .
Have exposed seeds .
Better adaptation for land habit .
Fertilization is by pollen tube i.e. siphonogamous .
Their seeds are borne on structures named as cones
They show secondary growth , due to development of cambium .
