What part of the embryo is the first to emerge from the seed coat?
The radicle (embryonic root) is the part of the embryo which emerges first.- HAO - :))
What are the three parts of a seed and what is the purpose of each part?
Seed coat, micropyle, endosperm and embryo are major parts of a seed. The seed coat protects, micropyle allows water to move in, endosperm nourishes the embryo and on germination a new plant emerges from the embryo.
What are three parts of a seed?
Monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous seeds have the following basic structures in common:The Seed coat or testa, protects the embryo against mechanical and chemical damage as well as dessication.The Cotyledon (or cotyledons), provides the food supply for the germinating embryo. The cotyledon(s) eventually develop into the primary leaves on germination of the seed.And the Embryo (or zygote), is the the diploid plant waiting to germinate.
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.
What are three important parts of a seed?
Embryo-the baby plant Cotyledon-food stored for the seed Seedcoat-protects the seed/covers it
What part of the embryo is the first to emerge from the seed coat?
The radicle (embryonic root) is the part of the embryo which emerges first.- HAO - :))
Describe the role in the germination process of the seed coat?
The seed coat contains and protects the embryo and endosperm until the seed has imbibed enough water to swell the seed and break the seed coat, allowing the embryo to start lengthening.

Which force must a seedling work against to emerge from the ground?
It needs soil, water, sunlight and nutrients.
What is the seed coat function in terrestrial plant?
nourishes the embryo Seed coat protects the embryo from unfabourable conditions of growth
What are three of a seed?
Seed coat, embryo and endosperm
What the composition of a seed?
The Seed coat, endosperm and embryo.
What does seed coat do?
The seed coat in a plant helps protect the embryo from damage and predators.
What are three main parts of a seed?
Three main parts of a seed are the endosperm, the embryo, and the seed coat.
What Protects the embryo and seed from dying out?
the testa or seed coat
The structure which contains a plant embryo is a?
seed coat
What are the three components of a seed?
1. an embryo 2. supply of nutrients for the embryo 3. seed coat
