Answer 2

Similarities between Gymnospermes and Angiospermes:

· Having seed-Gymnospermes and Angiospermes are types of plants bear seeds. They belong to a single class known as Spermatophyta. Spermatophyta or seed plants are those plants that produce seeds.

· Diferentiation- The sporophyte (diploid multicellular stage in the life cycle of a plant) of both, Gymnospermes and Angiospermes, is differentiated into root, stem, and leaves.

Differences between Gymnospermes and Angiospermes:

· Seed-Although both have seeds, differences between them are huge. Gymnospermes have bare, non-encased seeds. The term "gymnosperm" in Greek means "naked seeds". On the other hand, seeds of Angiospermes are enclosed within an ovary, usually in a fruit.

· Pollination- In Gymnospermes, the pollination is by wind, unlike most Angiosperms, who use insects, mammals or birds. Gymnosperm flowers are often difficult to spot because they are not out to attract flying pollinators.
