Answer 1

The characteristic that belongs in the area marked X, when comparing ginkgoes and conifers, is "are deciduous."

Ginkgoes are deciduous trees that lose their leaves in the fall, while conifers are primarily evergreen and retain their leaves year-round. This distinction makes "are deciduous" a suitable characteristic to include when comparing the two groups.
