the seed coat
What tissue stores food in the conifer seed?
the female gametophytic tissue
What has a protective coat around a plant embryo?
An embryo inside the seed coat may contain two cotyledones, a radicle and a plumule etc., if this seed belongs to dicot; if it is a monocot seed, the embryo will have a scutellum, an epiblast, a coleoptyl, a coleorhiza and plenty of endosperm.
Examples of monocot seeds?
Mongo seed is an example of a monocot seed it has one cotyledon only and other has two cotyledon they are called dicots . Strawberries, oranges, grapes and tomatos are examples of dicots.Dicots and monocots are abbreviation only, the full name for Dicots is Dicotyledon and for Monocots is Monocotyledon.

Both seeds contain embryo inside but in dicot the embryo has two cotyledones and scanty endosperm but in monocot there is only one cotyledon (scutellum) and large amount of endosperm.
Where is stored food found in a dicot seed?
the seed coat
Is endosperm usually more abundant in the mature seed of a dicot or of a monocot?
The endosperm is more abundant in the mature seed of a monocot.
What is the function of endosperm in monocot and dicot seed?
To nourish the seed prior to and during germination

An example of a seed that has liquid endosperm would be a coconut. While it does contain cellular endosperm, the coconut milk would be considered liquid endosperm.
What parts of a seed?
A dicot seed has a seed coat and an embryo containing a cotyledon, epicotyl, and hypocotyl. A monocot has a seed coat, endosperm, cotyledon, epicotyl, and a radicle.
Endosperm tissue is unique to which of these groups?
Endosperm tissue is unique to flowering plants, or angiosperms. Made up mostly of starch, it surrounds a seed and nourishes it.
What tissue stores food in the conifer seed?
the female gametophytic tissue
What does the endosperm do?
Endosperm is the tissue produced inside the seeds of most flowering plants around the time that the egg (seed) is fertilized. It surrounds the seed embryo and provides nutrition in the form of starch, and can also contain oils and protein. This makes endosperm an important source of nutrition in human diet. For example, wheat endosperm is ground into flour for bread. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endosperm
Are melon seeds monocotyledons?

What is the 3n nutritive tissue in the seed of angiosperms called?
the triploid The endosperm is a nutritive tissue which nourishes the developing embryo. The endosperm in angiosperm is triploid (3n) and it is a post - fertilization structure.
What has a protective coat around a plant embryo?
An embryo inside the seed coat may contain two cotyledones, a radicle and a plumule etc., if this seed belongs to dicot; if it is a monocot seed, the embryo will have a scutellum, an epiblast, a coleoptyl, a coleorhiza and plenty of endosperm.
