angiosperms - microsporangium produces pollen grains (sperm) and the megasporangium produces the egg - sporophyte generation is dominant - no water needed for fertilization – pollen travels with the wind Pine trees - monoecious (separate male and female cones on the same plant) - have needle-shaped leaves that adapt the tree to dry conditions - produce cones – male and female - male cones produce microsporangia (pollen sacs) that produce microspores (4) which mature
