Pollen cones are the male pollen-producing cones, and seed cones are the female seed-producing cones in conifer trees.

Seed cones are gymnosperms, which means the seeds are not enclosed within an ovary (in Greek, gymno is naked).

Male and female cones are extremely similar. The difference is not in the cones it is in the the chemical rhodopsin. Men are more prone to colour blindness (Red and blue) because they are different amounts of this chemical.

According to Tom Ubetcha, the male and female need to engage in intercourse to have children... This theory has not been proven yet, but we are trying our best here at TESCO.

WHAT IS THE Difference between male and female pine cones?

The pine cones that you are familiar with are probably female pine cones. You probably have never noticed male pine cones because they are much smaller and don't look much like the female pine cones. Male pine cones are much smaller and produce pollen grains. Female pine cones contain the egg. The pollen is carried from the male pine cones to the female pine cones by the wind.
