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.

Difference between conifer and flowering plants?

Conifers and flowering plants both produce seeds, but they are classified as completely different types of plants. While conifers are always trees (although some may appear to be shrubs), flowering plants can be trees, succulents and even grasses. However, there are several specific differences between the two that scientists use to tell them apart if there is ever any doubt.


What two categories are conifers and flowering plants divided into what does each name mean?

Conifers and flowering plants are divided into two categories: gymnosperms and angiosperms. Gymnosperms are conifers that bear naked seeds, typically in cones. Angiosperms are flowering plants that produce seeds enclosed within fruits.


Is gynosperm flowering plants?

No, gymnosperms are a group of seed-producing plants that include conifers, cycads, and ginkgo. They do not produce flowers; instead, they bear their seeds naked on the surface of scales or leaves. Flowering plants, known as angiosperms, are a distinct group that produce seeds enclosed within an ovary, which develops into a fruit.


Are angiosperms bigger than seed plants?

Not necessarily. Angiosperms are a type of seed plant that produce flowers and fruit. Seed plants include both angiosperms (flowering plants) and gymnosperms (non-flowering plants like conifers). Some gymnosperms, like redwoods, can be larger than many angiosperms.


What are four major groups of plants?

gymnosperm, angiosperm, bryophytes, and pteridophytes
