Both kinds of cones occur on the same tree except in juniper and yews where the male and female cones are on separate trees. Pollination is by the wind. Any organism that feeds on other plants or animals is a consumer. Consumers are also called heterotrophs which means other feeders. The leaves are wide or broad compared to their length and have net-like or branching veins.
Leaves are on the tree for a single growing season.
In the autumn the leaves change colour and are shed from the tree before winter. Deciduous trees produce true flowers. Both anther and pistils are commonly found in the same flower although in some cases they are found in separate flowers on the same tree or on different trees. Pollination is by wind or insects. The seeds mature within the growing season and are shed when ripe.
