A corn kernel serves as the seed of the corn plant, containing the embryo that will grow into a new plant when conditions are favorable. It is made up of three main parts: the pericarp (outer shell), the endosperm (nutrient supply for the embryo), and the germ (the embryo itself). The kernel stores starches and nutrients, which provide energy for germination and early growth. Additionally, corn kernels are a significant agricultural product used for food, animal feed, and various industrial applications.
