A seed (in some plants, referred to as a kernel) is a small embryonic plant enclosed in a covering called the seed coat, usually with some stored food. It is the product of the ripened ovule of gymnosperm and angiosperm plants which occurs after fertilization and some growth within the mother plant. A typical seed includes three basic parts:

# an embryo # a supply of nutrients for the embryo # a seed coat The term seed also has a general meaning that predates the above - anything that can be sown i.e. "seed" potatoes, "seeds" of corn or sunflower "seeds". In the case of sunflower and corn "seeds", what is sown is the seed enclosed in a shell or hull, and the potato is a tuber.

There are three important parts inside the seed that grow and turn into a plant.

1) the embryo, 2) the endosperm 3) the seed coat. These play a vital but very different role in the development of the seeds growth.
