Solution

Gymnosperms:

  1. Unlike angiosperms which are flowering plants, gymnosperms lack a fleshy component that encloses the seed as an outer covering, thus it bears naked seeds.
  2. Gymnosperms are a group of plants that include around 200 species and evolved around 390 million years ago.
    Examples of gymnosperms include:
  • Cycas
  • Juniperus
  • Araucaria
  • Pinus
  • Cedrus
  • Thuja
  • Abies
  • Picea
  • Larix
