(N/A) $\rightarrow$ The male and female gametophytes of pteridophytes and gymnosperms differ in the following ways:

Male gametophyte in Pteridophytes	Male gametophyte in Gymnosperms
$(i)$ Reduced and short-lived.	$(i)$ Highly reduced and dependent on the sporophyte.
$(ii)$ Male gametes are flagellated (motile).	$(ii)$ Male gametes are non-flagellated (non-motile).
$(iii)$ Requires water for fertilization.	$(iii)$ Does not require water; fertilization occurs via a pollen tube.

Female gametophyte in Pteridophytes	Female gametophyte in Gymnosperms
$(i)$ Often independent and photosynthetic.	$(i)$ Completely dependent on the parent sporophyte.
$(ii)$ Not retained within the parent sporophyte.	$(ii)$ Retained within the megasporangium (ovule).
$(iii)$ Does not form a seed.	$(iii)$ Develops into a seed after fertilization.
