yes food is stored in the seeds
Seeds need a supply of stored food to provide energy for germination and initial growth before they can photosynthesize. This stored food source ensures the seedling has enough energy to establish itself and begin growing into a mature plant. It also increases the chances of successful germination and survival in challenging conditions.
The young plant with stored food sealed inside a coat is called a seed. Seeds contain the necessary nutrients and genetic material for the plant to grow and develop.
Seeds are stored in an airtight container to protect them from moisture, air, and pests that could damage or degrade their viability. Storing seeds in an airtight container helps maintain their quality and ensures they remain viable for planting in the future.
Cotyledons inside seeds serve as the primary food source for the developing seedling until it can photosynthesize on its own. They contain stored nutrients that nourish the seedling as it germinates and begins to grow.
As a general rule, light-sensitive germination is more pronounced in small seeds compared with large seeds. This is because smaller seeds have smaller food reserves in comparison to larger seeds. As the seedling is growing underground, it has no access to sunlight, so instead of using photosynthesis to produce food, the germinating seedling must use the food reserves in its seed to supply itself with enough energy to continue growing. Because the food reserve is very limited due to the small storage available in the small seed, the seedling must grow quickly and sprout out of the ground as fast as possible to gain access to the sun before it runs out of food. Meanwhile, larger seeds have much more food stored in their seeds, meaning they can take their time when growing. This is why small seeds germinate faster than larger seeds.
Another name for a seeds stored food is the endosperm.
No, it is stored in the cotyledones
Yes
yes
stored food I think by water
Yes, seeds contain an embryonic plant (young plant) in addition to stored food reserves to support its initial growth. The stored food provides essential nutrients for the germination and early growth of the seedling until it can produce its own food through photosynthesis.
To know how they were adapted or made
the seeds are in the nucleus & the food is produced by the sap vacuole

Food that is stored inside of a seed is said to be stored in dormant form. This means that the seed will not grow until it is in a place with plenty of good soil, food, and water.
