Yes, a sweet gum is an angiosperm. It belongs to the genus Liquidambar, which is part of the family Altingiaceae. Angiosperms are characterized by their production of flowers and seeds enclosed within a fruit, which is true for sweet gum trees. They are commonly known for their star-shaped leaves and distinctive spiky seed balls.
