◾Some important characteristics features of gymnosperm
1. The term gymnosperm refers to plants with naked seeds (gymnos – naked, sperma – seeds), i.e., the seeds of these plants are not enclosed in fruits.
2. The plant-body ranges from medium to tall trees and shrubs. The giant redwood tree Sequoia is one of the tallest trees in the world.
3. The root system consists of tap roots. The coralloid roots present in Cycas are associated with nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria.

Answer:
Characteristics of Gymnosperms:-
They do not produce flowers.
Seeds are not formed inside a fruit. They are naked.
They are found in colder regions where snowfall occurs.
They develop needle-like leaves.
They are perennial or woody, forming trees or bushes.
They are not differentiated into ovary, style and stigma.
Since stigma is absent, they are pollinated directly by the wind.
The male gametophytes produce two gametes, but only one of them is functional.
They form cones with reproductive structures.
The seeds contain endosperm that stores food for the growth and development of the plant.
These plants have vascular tissues which help in the transportation of nutrients and water.
Xylem does not have vessels, and the phloem has no companion cells and sieve tubes.
