Answer:

Gymnosperms are spermatophytes that are cone bearing, have vascular tissue, reproduce by the use of seeds, and the seed is not enclosed in fruit. Angiosperms produce flowers, which is their specialized reproductive organ, have seeds that protect and nourish newly created plants, and produce fruit which are fleshy layers of tissue that surround and protect the seeds that help their dispersal. There are also two different groups of angiosperms called dicot, and monocot.

Angiosperms, also called flowering plants, have seeds that are enclosed within an ovary (usually a fruit), while gymnosperms have no flowers or fruits, and have unenclosed or “naked” seeds on the surface of scales or leaves. Gymnosperm seeds are often configured as cones.
