Answer 2

Pine cone seeds are produced in the ovules of the female cone.

Pine trees are evergreen coniferous trees with the presence of the characteristic needle like photosynthetic leaves. Pine trees have both the male and female cones on the same tree and are monoecious. The male cones are short lived and fall off after shedding pollen grains. The female cones are long lived and contain the ovules which are fertilized by the pollen to form seeds. Each female cone has spirally arranged scales with two seeds on each scale. On maturity, the cones release the seeds and are dispersed by wind or birds.
