A gymnosperm is a seed plant that produces naked seeds
A gymnosperm will have everything BUT flowers, Gymnosperms are tree like so they have woody growth, they produce seeds with pollen, they have leaves like most vascular plants, and since they are vascular they have vascular tissue, they have all of that except a fruit protecting the outside of the seed.
Hope this helps, if not, comment below please!!!!

They have seeds, leaves, vascular tissue, and often exhibit woody growth. Therefore, flowers are the correct answer as the exception among the options provided.
