Human and Ecological Relevance of Conifers
1. Pine trees-"many parts are edible"
• bark and seeds
2. Masts of sailing vessels (eastern white pine)
3. Turpentine and rosin
• naval stores, caulking and sealing wooden sailing ships
4. Amber
• fossilized resins with entrapped insects

9. Juniper berries
• used to flavor gin
10. Pacific yew

1. Arrowroot starch (from cycads)
2. Ginkgo
a. Seeds edible
b. Leaf extracts improve blood supply to brain and lungs
3. Mormon tea
• from Ephedra leaves
4. Ephedrine drug
• from Chinese Ephedra
5. Gnetum rope (used in Java)
• from bark fibers
—Gymnosperms take in Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and releases Oxygen (O).—The paper we write on and the wood we use to build with comes from conifers. Turpentine and rosin is made from the conifer's sap.—Fibers in clothing and cellophane wrappers also come from conifers.—Large, Managed forests have been made to balance how many conifers are left and how many we cut down.
Gymnoperms are responsible for lumber and paper. Angiosperms are responsible for fruit and the more expensive lumber.
Angiosperms and gymnosperms are the two types of trees. I hope u know how trees are important. They provide food shelter ect. To many living things
they are ornamentel plants.

Peony are angiosperms.
Gymnosperms use cones to distribute their seeds.
Resin is a waxy substance that gymnosperms secrete in their resin canals that act as an anti-freeze for the plants. This is why gymnosperms are the evergreen trees and they do not lose their needles.
Plants in the phylum Coniferophyta are gymnosperms.
Gymnosperm is a sperm coming from human cellulartube

clarify, is this a question or open debate? if you mean human behaviour's relevance in a work place or... it need clarification.
Yes Gymnosperms have supporting stems.
Peony are angiosperms.
No. Conifers are Gymnosperms.
