Both gymnosperms and angiosperms bear seeds, then why are they classified separately?

Gymnosperms and angiosperms are seed-generating vegetation with diplontic existence cycles. In gymnosperms, the sporophylls are aggregated to shape compact cones. The microsporophylls are large and are now no longer prominent into filaments and anthers. The megasporophylls are woody and absence the ovary, style, and stigma, due to which the ovules lie exposed. The lady gametophyte includes archegonia. The fertilisation process includes the fusion of a male gamete with the girl gamete. Their endosperm is haploid. The produced seeds are bare as there's no fruit formation. Angiosperms also are called flowering flowers. They have sporophylls that combination to shape flora with the perianth. The microsporophylls include stamens containing pollen sacs. These sacs undergo the male gametes called pollen grains. The megasporophylls are sensitive and rolled, forming carpels that comprise the ovary, style, and stigma. The ovules are gift within the ovary. The archegonium is changed with the aid of using an egg equipment. Two male gametes enter the egg equipment on the time of fertilisation. One male gamete fertilises the egg and the opposite fuses with the diploid secondary nucleus to shape an endosperm. The ensuing endosperm is for this reason triploid. In addition, in angiosperms, the improvement of seeds takes vicinity within the fruits.
