that female cones contain at least one ovule at the base of each scale
Cones develop spores and ovules and fertilized ovules develop into seeds.
A male cone should contain no ovules whatsoever
ovules :D
ovules :D
Seed are produced in the cones. The female cone contains ovules which, when fertilized by pollen, become seeds.
The reproductive organs of gymnosperms are found in cones, which can be either male (pollen cones) or female (seed cones). The pollen cones produce pollen, while the seed cones contain the ovules where the seeds develop.
Pollen is produced by male cones, also known as strobili, in gymnosperms, such as conifers and cycads. These cones shed pollen grains that contain male gametes for fertilizing the ovules in female cones.
Yes, gymnosperms produce ovules. Ovules are the structures within female cones where female gametes are produced and fertilized by male gametes to form seeds. Gymnosperms include conifers, cycads, and ginkgoes, among others.
Gymnosperms reproduce using cones as reproductive structures. Male cones produce pollen, which is carried to female cones by wind or insects for fertilization. The ovules within the female cones then develop into seeds.
Most Gymnosperms are diecious with the male and female reproductive organs on different plants. The male "flower" produces pollen and the female "flower" contains the ovary. Many female gymnosperms produce cones that house the fertilized eggs until the seeds are mature.
Ovules are structures within the ovary of a plant that contain the female reproductive cells. Once fertilized, ovules develop into seeds, which contain the embryo of the plant along with a store of nutrients. In this way, ovules ultimately give rise to seeds through the process of fertilization.
