Question

why pinus is kept in a group of gymnosperms?

Answer 1

Answer.

The gymnosperms , also known as Acrogymnospermae are a group of seed-producing plants that includes conifers, cycads, Ginkgo, and gnetophytes. The term "gymnosperm" comes from the Greekcomposite word γυμνόσπερμος (γυμνός gymnos, "naked" and σπέρμα sperma, "seed"), meaning "naked seeds". The name is based on the unenclosed condition of their seeds (called ovules in their unfertilized state).
