Detailed explanation-1: -Angiosperms, are also known as flowering plants and having seeds enclosed within their fruit. Whereas gymnosperms have no flowers or fruits and have naked seeds on the surface of their leaves. Gymnosperm seeds are configured as the cones.
Detailed explanation-2: -1. Gymnosperms do not form fruit, angiosperm form fruit. 2. Gymnosperms have naked seeds, angiosperms have enclosed seeds.
Detailed explanation-3: -The key difference between angiosperms and gymnosperms is how their seeds are developed. The seeds of angiosperms develop in the ovaries of flowers and are surrounded by a protective fruit. Gymnosperm seeds are usually formed in unisexual cones, known as strobili, and the plants lack fruits and flowers.
Detailed explanation-4: -Technically, gymnosperms are robust and can survive in a variety of habitats. However, angiosperms have two novel features – fruit and flowers. The fruits aid in dispersing seeds, while the flowers provide protection for the ovule. Hence, angiosperms are considered better than gymnosperms.
Detailed explanation-5: -Gymnosperms have naked seeds, don’t have flowers or fruits, and have a haploid endosperm in the seeds (endosperm is produced before fertilization), while Angiosperms have enclosed seeds, flowers, fruits, and have a triploid endosperm in the seed (endosperm produced during triple fusion).
