it stores food for the young plant and also protect it
Answer:
It's a principle part of the embryo in the seed of a plant. Seeds with two are called dicotyledons, seeds with only one are called monocotyledons.
There would be two cotyledons in Bengal gram, which is also known as a chickpea or garbanzo bean.
Dicots is short for dicotyledons. Di- is a prefix meaning two, dicotyledons (dicots) have two seed leaves, cotyledons.
2 - 24
no it is epigeal type of germination because the cotyledons are under the soil
Scallions are members of the onion family so are monocots, that is they have one cotyledon per seed.
To protect the seed.
A groundnut (peanut) has two cotyledons.
The seed coat protects the seed from mechanical damage, pathogens, and dehydration during dormancy. Cotyledons are the embryonic leaves in a seed that provide nutrients to the seedling until it can produce its own food through photosynthesis.
The cotyledons provides a source of food to the seed and seedling that is germinating, while the seed coat protects it.
The hypocotyl is the lower part of the embryonic stem of a plant. Its primary functions include supporting the cotyledons (seed leaves) and transporting food and water between the roots and the cotyledons. Additionally, the hypocotyl aids in the emergence of the plant from the soil during germination.
the cotyledons
An angiosperm with two cotyledons is a dicot or Magnoliopsida.
normal placenta may have 15 - 28 cotyledons
a kidney bean seed has 2 cotyledons
Of course cotyledons are small structures! They are "inside" seeds!
A dicot seed typically has two cotyledons. These cotyledons store nutrients for the seedling until it can photosynthesize and produce its own food.
The first set of leaves are called cotyledons. A dicot has two and a monocot has only one.
