There is no set number of male cones that can be found in a cluster. Unlike female cones, which are usually single, there can be large numbers of male cones in cluster.

No, male cone can only produce microspores (Pollen grains).
The female cone
A male kauri cone is called a Catkin.Kauri trees can live for 200-2000yrs
the zygote Edited answer: Pollen grains develop on the male cone.
The transfer of pollen from the male cone to the female cone in gymnosperms is called pollination. This process leads to the fertilization of the ovule and the development of seeds.
Female cones produce seeds. They contain the ovules that are fertilized by pollen from male cones, leading to seed development.
The color of the male cone, or pollen cone, in coniferous trees is typically yellow. This yellow hue is due to the presence of pollen grains produced within the cone. However, the exact shade can vary among different species of conifers. In some cases, the male cone may appear green or brown before maturing and releasing pollen.
The transfer of pollen from a male cone to a female cone is called pollination. In gymnosperms, such as conifers, this process typically occurs through wind, which carries the pollen grains from the male cones to the ovules in the female cones. Successful pollination can lead to fertilization and the development of seeds.
pollen grains are transported from the microsporangium (contained in the anther of an angiosperm flower, male cone of a coniferous plant, or male cone of other seed plants)
