Cones are vascular plants. Flowers are also vascular plants.
Explanation:
The most basic division is between non-vascular plants and vascular plants. Vascular plants are further divided into those that reproduce without seeds and those that reproduce with seeds. Seed plants, in turn, are divided into those that produce seeds in cones and those that produce seeds in the ovaries of flowers. Seed plants are called gymnosperms. Seed plants called angiosperms produce seeds in the ovaries of flowers.
The offspring will be genetically identical to the parent because vegetative reproduction is a form of asexual reproduction. Therefore, there is only one parent and the offspring is identical to the parent.
