Answer:
The male cone (microstrobilus or pollen cone) is structurally similar across all conifers, differing only in small ways (mostly in scale arrangement) from species to species. Extending out from a central axis are microsporophylls (modified leaves).

Explanation:
Through mitosis, microspores in the male microsporangium become male gametophytes, which are commonly known as pollen.
The male gametophyte has two air bladders that will help it float on the air when it is released by the male cone.
Typically, the male cones that produce pollen are located on the lower branches of the tree.
