where and on which branches are female cones found
Roots, trunk, branches, twigs , needles and cones.
Angiosperm seeds are found inside the female cones. The cone is called a strobilus. The male cones distribute 1-2 million pollen grains. The female cones have a sticky secretion that catches the pollen and brings it into the female cone.
There is no set number of male cones that can be found in a cluster. Unlike female cones, which are usually single, there can be large numbers of male cones in cluster.

In the male & female cones or sporophylls
The male gametophyte of pine develops in cluster at the tip of lower branches of the cones tree. The location of staminate cones ensures the success of pollination by cross fertilization.

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.
