Concepts Used:

Seed

The matured and fertilized ovule, which comprises an active embryo reserve food and protective coating, is referred to as a seed. Seeds are ripened ovules that contain an embryonic plant with sufficient reserve food for embryo development. Ovules evolve into seeds after fertilization.

Types of Seed:

  1. Monocotyledonous seeds: Seeds having only one cotyledon, called monocotyledonous seeds.
  2. Dicotyledonous seeds: Seeds with two cotyledons, called dicotyledonous seeds.
  3. Albuminous seeds: Seeds having an endosperm. These seeds have thin membrane cotyledons and endosperm that hold on and feed the seedling during its early growth.
  4. Exalbuminous seeds: Food gathers in the endosperm tissue of exalbuminous seeds early in development, but it is utilized by the growing embryo and mature seeds without endosperm.
