No pinecones are not seeds. The trees produces the pinecone to be the bearer of the seeds. The seeds are in between the layers of the pinecone. The seeds have a wing around it so when it falls out it "flies" away in order to populate a larger area. I hope this helped.

A pine cone is neither a seed or flower. When it is formed it is tightly closed. Inside the tightly closed bud are the seeds and when the cone opens the seed fall out to the ground where squirrels and birds feed on them.

It is not unusual for squirrells to chew off the new cones before they open and chew them open to get the seeds out. A few seed may be left and become a sprout of a new tree.

What does a pine cone look like when it starts growing?

i think they come out of the tree in the direction they are facingAnother answer:When pine cones are on the tree, they grow down. The point grows toward the ground. The stem part in the middle of the cone attaches to the cone. The pine cone itself is a container for pine seeds. The cone will open and release the seeds. If you pick up a large pine cone, you may find that the front part has opened and the rear part has not. If you take the part that has not opened and open it, you may find the pine cone seeds inside. Each one is a seed attached to a membrane. The membrane acts like a propeller that helps the seed spin around. If the pine tree burns, all the pine cones open and release all their seeds. The new plants grow straight up.
