I have no idea what a colyledon might be. A cotyledon is a modified leaf containing the food for a seed. It provides the food for the new plant. Some cotyledons finish their task of providing the new plant with food and turn into leaves. Other cotyledons do not turn into leaves. Some cotyledons go underground and store food for the plant.
