because of the egg cell
A seed contains an egg, which will grow into a new plant when fertilized.A:The seed contains an embryonic plant not an egg. The embryo has food stored for and they are enclosed in the seed covering. For reference about this please click on the related link below about seeds. A:EndospermSeed CoatsCotyledons The fertilized egg (zygote) develops into an embryo which is contained within the seed. In moss and ferns, spores were carried by the wind and functioned to disperse the species. Seeds function as a mechanism of dispersal in seed plants.
egg
the ovule is a plant structure in seed plants that produces the female gametophyte; contains an egg cell
All leguminous plants produce seed pods form their ovaries after pollination and fertilization of egg inside ovules.
Egg cells are located in the flower of a plant. When it has been fertilized by pollen, the egg becomes a seed.

In flowering plants, one or more seeds develop within an ovary. The seed coat, which is the hard structure that surrounds the seed, develops from the wall of the chamber where the fertilized egg begins to develop.
a seed plant embryo is part of a seed, consisting of precursor tissues for the leaves, stem (see hypocotyl), and root (see radicle), as well as one or more cotyledons. Once the embryo begins to germinate - grow out from the seed - it is called a seedling (plantlet). Plants that do not produce seeds, but do produce an embryo, include the bryophytes and ferns. In these plants, the embryo is a young plant that grows attached to a parental gametophyte.
This is from wikipedia. Check out the article by clicking on the related links below.Ovule literally means "small egg." In seed plants, the ovule is the structure that gives rise to and contains the female reproductive cells. It consists of three parts: The integuments forming its outer layer, the nucellus (or megasporangium), and the megaspore-derived female gametophyte (or megagametophyte) in its center. The megagametophyte (also called embryo sac in flowering plants) produces the egg cell for fertilization. After fertilization, the ovule develops into a seed.
Non-seed plants evolved from seed plants.
The seed is a "vessel" which contains, protects and aids in distirbution of the embryo (zygote) of the plant to a new destination.
