Acorns and pine cones

Pine cones can be similar and very different at the same time. The main difference that they have is that pinecones have seeds and acorns don't. another difference is that acorns come from oak trees while pine cones come pine trees. Acorns are rare because animals such as squirrels eat them. They are usually eaten then the animal disposes of them, they then grow. Pine cones are made from there flying sperms(Pollon). The thing pine cones and acorns have in common is that they both grow on trees.

  1. Acorns contain seeds as well - otherwise info is okay... the acorn "nut" part actually protects the seed like a fruit would.
