Gymnosperms and angiosperms are spermatophytes, ie, seed bearing plants. Angiosperms are anthophytes, ie, flowering plants.
Flowers are the reproductive organs of plants. They enclose the reproductive parts, androecium and gynoecium, and therefore provide protection to these reproductive organs against abiotic (temperature, wind, humidity) and biotic (herbiovores) stresses. Brightly coloured flowers and those producing nectar and any kind of smell ensure pollination and therefore, fertilization and development of seed.
Fruits are the structures which develop post fertilization and enclose the seeds. They protect seed against biotic and abiotic stresses.
Seeds on the other hand are fertilised ovules. They enclose embryo and endosperm. Endosperm is the nutritive tissue for the developing embryo. Also, seeds help embryo to survive long period of environmental stresses and germinate in favourable conditions. Seeds are the structure which ensure continuation of generations.

What do botanists call plants that form flowers and seeds through the sexual process that allows more mixing of genes and evolution to proceed more quickly? 1. Sexualphores 2. Spermatophores 3. Angiosperms 4. Gymnosperms
A botanist wishes to estimate the typical number of seeds for a certain fruit. She samples 42 specimens and counts the number of seeds in each. Use her sample results (mean = 79.1, standard deviation = 10.3) to find the 95% confidence interval for the number of seeds for the species. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to 3 decimal places. 95% C.I. =
A botanist wishes to estimate the typical number of seeds for a certain fruit. She samples 73 specimens and counts the number of seeds in each. Use her sample results (mean = 66.5, standard deviation = 6.3) to find the 99% confidence interval for the number of seeds for the species. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to 3 decimal places. 99% C.I. =
A botanist wishes to estimate the typical number of seeds for a certain fruit. She samples 60 specimens and counts the number of seeds in each. Use her sample results (mean = 17.1, standard deviation = 16.4) to find the 95% confidence interval for the number of seeds for the species. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to one decimal place (because the sample statistics are reported accurate to one decimal place).
