No, a conic section does not have vertices. If it is a circle, it has a center; if it is a parabola or hyperbola, it has a focus; and if it is an ellipse, it has foci.

It sounds like this describes the conic section which is 2 straight lines intersecting at the origin [degenerate form of a hyperbola], but I may be misunderstanding the phrasing of the question.
It is a parabola.
circle and ellipse are closed curved conic section!, from bilal , Pakistan
A conic section is a curve formed by the intersection of a plane with a cone (conical surface). If the section is parallel to the base of the cone, the conic section has a fixed diameter and is a circle. Any other plane that does not intersect the apex is either a parabola, a hyperbola, or an ellipse.

Parabolas have directori.
Any conic section.
A conic section is generated by the intersection of a plane with a double cone. The specific shape of the conic section (ellipse, parabola, hyperbola, or circle) depends on the angle of the plane in relation to the axis of the cone. The different conic sections result from different orientations of the cutting plane.
In CAD, an ellipse is typically represented as a true conic section rather than a four-circle ellipse. A true conic section is defined mathematically as the set of points where the sum of the distances to two focal points is constant. While some CAD systems may approximate an ellipse using arcs of circles for convenience, the most accurate representation adheres to the geometric definition of an ellipse as a conic section.
An ellipse is a conic section which is a closed curve. A circle is a special case of an ellipse.
