The word conifer literally means, cone bearing. It refers to trees such as pine trees, which produce pine cones. Such trees are vastly larger than ferns, which are little plants that grow to something like 2 or 3 feet in height at the most. Ferns are also a more primitive form of plant. Trees have trunks made of wood, ferns do not have woody stems. Trees reproduce by means of seeds, ferns reproduce by means of spores (which are like seeds only smaller).

How do conifers differ from flowering plants?
Conifers are different to flowering plants because conifer reproduce with seed cones. The pollen come out of the male cone and fertilises the ovule or female cone. Conifers are also different because the have needle like leaves but I'm not sure if that's relevant... Any way, I hope this has helped. You might have to do a bit more research. Conifers also have naked seeds, whereas flowering plants have their seeds encased in flesh (fruit). Although some conifers like the plum pines also have fruit. Also flowering plants have... flowers. And non flowering plants don't. But I thought that was obvious.
