Question

Danny has taken a cross section of a seed. Which of the following are the parts that he will see? pollen grain, sperm, and egg stored food, flower, and pollen grain seed coat, stored food, and an embryo cone, zygote, and seed coat

Answer 1

The third option is correct, seed coat, stored food, embryo. The coat is what protects the inner parts from outside infuences, while the food is the nutrients that the seed uses when growing and developing. The embryo will eventually become the new plant that grows out of the seed. Seeds usually fall from things like pinecones on the ground near the original tree, which is why coniferous forests are usually very dense.
