Gymnosperms are plants that do not grow flowers or fruits. You can remember this because of "gym" in gymnosperm. You see, when I think of gym I do not think of flowers or fruits, because you usually don't see flowers and fruit inside a gym, do you? Same way, you do not see seeds in gymnosperm plants!
A gymnosperm is called a naked seed plant because the seed isn't kept inside a fruit. Conifer seeds fall out of the cones without any hard shells or berries.
Because they lack ovaries. The ovary are the ones that develop into a fruit, which surround the seed.
Gymnosperms have naked seeds even though they have a seed coat because their seeds are not enclosed in a fruit.
since gymnosperms have no ovaries, they do not produce real fruits, at least not in the botanical sense. Because no fruit tissue surrounds gymnosperm seeds, the seeds are said to be "naked."
Because the seeds aren't kept inside a fruit. So their "naked".

Gymnosperm means "naked seed" because Gymnosperms do not produce a tissue around the seed. (Mohan Bikram Shrestha)
"gymnosperms" reffering to the classification of plants having naked seeds .
There is no protective coat around the seed, unlike for example, an apple seed which is encased in the fruit itself.
Because these are nacked seeded plants and Gymnosperms means that.
Gymnosperms use cones to distribute their seeds.
The gametophytes of gymnosperms live inside reproductive structures called cones. Gametophyte is the immediate result of fertilization in mosses.

No; liverworts do not have leaves. The massive compound leaves in some ferns and gymnosperms are called fronds.
Peony are angiosperms.
