Question 9 • Science 7 B (M12 25/26 S2)

Which accurately describes reproduction in gymnosperms? Select four options.Some require heat for seed dispersal.Female cones produce pollen.Most gymnosperms produce male and female cones.Fertilized ovules grow into seeds.Male and female cones may grow on the same plant.

Answer
A
Some require heat for seed dispersal.
B
Female cones produce pollen.
C
Most gymnosperms produce male and female cones.
D
Fertilized ovules grow into seeds.
E
Male and female cones may grow on the same plant.

Explanation

Some gymnosperms have cones that open after exposure to heat, releasing their seeds. In most gymnosperms, male cones produce pollen and female cones contain ovules; after fertilization, the ovules develop into seeds. Male and female cones can grow on the same plant. Female cones do not produce pollen, so option B is incorrect.
