Answer:

In gymnosperms, the reproductive structure is called a strobilus or a cone. Both male and female strobili can be present on the same tree (seen in Pinus) or on different trees (seen in Cycas). Gymnosperm plants are heterosporous. They produce different spores, which are the haploid microspores and megaspores.

Male Cones – the male strobili or male cones have microsporophylls, which have the microsporangia that produce the haploid microspores. Some of these microspores develop into male gametes called the pollen grains, while the rest degenerate.

Female Cones – the megasporophylls form a cluster and are called as the female strobili or cones. They bear the ovules having the megasporangium. Thus produces the haploid megaspores and a megaspore mother cell.

Explanation:

A pteridophyte is a vascular plant (with xylem and phloem) that disperses spores. Because pteridophytes produce neither flowers nor seeds, they are sometimes referred to as "cryptogams", meaning that their means of reproduction is hidden.
