Explanation:

In gymnosperms (plants with “naked seeds”—such as conifers, cycads, and ginkgo), the ovules are not enclosed in an ovary but lie exposed on leaflike structures, the megasporophylls.

Answer:

The term "gymnosperm" comes from the composite word in Greek: gymnos, 'naked' and sperma, 'seed', literally meaning "naked seeds". ... The non-encased condition of their seeds contrasts with the seeds and ovules of flowering plants (angiosperms), which are enclosed within an ovary.
