Science glossary film: Angiosperm

Flowering plants, or more precisely plants whose seeds are enclosed in a fleshy fruit, rather than being naked at pollination. Flowering plants are the most diverse group of plants on Earth, and divided evolutionarily from gymnosperm, like the gingko and conifers, about 200-240 million years ago.
