I ate a packet of BBQ sunflower seeds and shells. Two weeks later, a ruptured apendix. Thanks ENMU Medical Center for great service!
one cup of sunflower seeds (with shell) is 7.5 in point plus

small ones produce about 800 seeds and the larger ones 2000. Botanically the seeds are actually fruits.

There are approximately 3 cups of sunflower seeds per pound. This may vary a bit depending on the size of the seeds.
No you don't; raw sunflower seeds are edible. Many people do prefer to cook them, however.
There are 15g of fat in 1/4 cup of sunflower seeds and 15g of fat in 3/4 cup of sunflower seeds still in the shell.
Sunflower seeds, Pumkin seeds and many more.
depends on how many you buy
Probably very few. Sunflower heads are processed at the factory producing the sunflower seeds by the thousands, and in washing, sorting, etc, a great deal of "mixing" takes place. A bag of sunflower seeds probably has seeds from dozens/hundreds of heads in it.
Only One.
Each sunflower head can contain as many as 800 to 2000 seeds. These seeds can vary in appearance, but the most common type used for snacking is black with a white stripe pattern on the hull. These seeds are the means of sunflower reproduction, and can be planted to grow into a new sunflower the following growing season.
