Explanation
In gymnosperms, the male and female gametophytes do not have an independent existence. Strobili or cones are distinct compact structures found in certain pteridophytes (like Selaginella and Equisetum) and gymnosperms. Mosses do not form cones; their sporophyte consists of a foot, seta, and capsule. The "precursor to seed habit" is only seen in heterosporous pteridophytes.
