Best Answer

The stored food inside the seed is used up by the seedling. Seedling after establishing itself as a new plant starts absorbing nutrients and water with the help of its root and starts synthesizing its own food by photosynthesis.

As the seedling grows it gets its nourishment from the seed and ultimately the seed withers away from the seedling.
