A
gymnosperms have cones that come from flowers and angiosperms do not
B
gymnosperms have cones that do not come from flowers but have seeds and angiosperms do not
C
gymnosperms are exactly like angiosperms, they just produce fruit that surrounds the seeds
D
gymnosperms produce fruit and angiosperms do not
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -Angiosperms and gymnosperms are both seed-bearing plants with a few similarities. This is due to the fact that gymnosperms were present for at least 200 million years before the angiosperms evolved, and they may have shared a common ancestor. The main difference between angiosperms and gymnosperms is their diversity.
