a seed is made of?

The seed is composed of the embryo (the result of fertilization) and tissue from the mother plant, which also form a cone around the seed in coniferous plants like Pine and Spruce. The new seed is formed in plant structures called fruits.

As nouns the difference between seed and kernel is that seed is (senseid)(countable) a fertilized grain, initially encased in a fruit, which may grow into a mature plant while kernel is the core, center, or essence of an object or system.

A cotyledon is part of the embryo within the seed of a plant. Often when the seed germinates, or begins to grow, the cotyledon may become the first leaves of the seedling. Botanists use the number of cotyledons present in the seed of a plant as a means of classification.

Speaking of the seeds, zinnia seeds can be difficult to see. If you look at the seedhead you've taken apart, you'll see dried petals. At the base of those petals is an arrow-shaped base; these are the seeds.

a seed is germinated when it can grow without the food stored in the seed. A bean is the seed of the bean plant. ... Some growers sell their beans at the farmer's market. A soybeans is a kind of bean that is grown in fields as a crop.

This seed (which industry calls a “kernel”) is made up of three key edible parts – the bran, the germ, and the endosperm – protected by an inedible husk that protects the kernel from assaults by sunlight, pests, water, and disease.

Gymnosperms. Seeds consist of an embryo already packaged within the seed, and nutritive tissue surrounded by a protective coat. 1. A seed contains a well-developed multicellular young plant with embryonic root, stem, and leaves already formed, whereas a plant spore is a single cell.

The seeds comprise around 3% of the weight of a pomegranate. Each seed is encased in a sweet and juicy covering known as an aril. While the seeds themselves are hard and fibrous, you might be missing out on some health benefits if you discarded them.

Tubers produced from seed yam are genetically identical to the mother seed material, while those produced from yam seeds have an identity different from the parent material. In West Africa, farmer-saved seeds are the predominant source of planting material (Nweke et al.

The endosperm is the food storage area of the seed. The purpose of the seed coat is to protect the seed from physical, temperature-related, or water damage. The seed coat also ensures that the plant seed remain in a state of dormancy until conditions are right for the plant embryo to germinate, or sprout.

Fruits have their seeds on the inside. A yam is a rhizome and reproduces underground without seeds. It's easy to remember that yams are not fruit, because yams do not contain seeds.

The endosperm in a seed develops into the embryo. ... Why do fleshy fruits often have seeds with very tough seed coats? So the seeds can survive the mechanical forces and conditions in an animal's gut. What characterizes the fruit of seeds that are dispersed by the wind?

vegetables: dont have seeds. the egg yolk is clearly a seed, and therefore egg is a fruit. Neither; it is a seed. If you plant it, chickens come out.

Most fruits have seeds, which makes them capable of developing into new plants. A fruit is a matured and ripened ovary of a plant, which is why it contains seeds for plant reproduction.

Nuts vs Seeds vs Legumes First off, there is a difference between true nuts and seeds themselves. Technically, nuts are the hard-shelled “fruit” of certain plants. Conversely, seeds are a small edible plant enclosed in a seed coat. Most nuts are seeds, but not all seeds are nuts.

The three primary parts of a seed are the embryo, endosperm, and seed coat. The embryo is the young multicellular organism before it emerges from the seed. The endosperm is a source of stored food, consisting primarily of starches. The seed coat consists of one or more protective layers that encase the seed.

Pelleted Seeds. Small seeds like carrots, onions and lettuce are sometimes “pelleted.” Each seed is coated with a layer of clay to increase its size for easier handling. This makes spacing the seeds much easier and enables growers to use set spacing on their seeding machines. It also increases evenness in germination.
