Both of these structures came from the same tree. What is the function of each?

Answer:

The green parts are male flowers, which produce pollen. Like many trees, Sweetgum trees are pollenated by the wind, which means that they need to produce a LOT of pollen. The round, brown structures are the fruit, which develops from the female flower. The holes in these show that they have already released their seeds.
