In most of dicot seeds the endosperm is used up by the developing embryo and the food material for the seedling is stored in the cotyledons.
The endosperm in monocot seeds serves as a nutrient reserve that provides nourishment to the developing embryo. In dicot seeds, the endosperm is often absorbed by the developing embryo during seed maturation, leaving the cotyledons to function as the primary nutrient storage tissue.

Orange seeds are dicot seeds. Dicot seeds have two seed leaves (cotyledons) when they germinate, whereas monocot seeds have only one seed leaf.
The endosperm is more abundant in the mature seed of a monocot.
Coriander seeds are dicot
Both seeds contain embryo inside but in dicot the embryo has two cotyledones and scanty endosperm but in monocot there is only one cotyledon (scutellum) and large amount of endosperm.
The endosperm in monocot seeds serves as a nutrient reserve that provides nourishment to the developing embryo. In dicot seeds, the endosperm is often absorbed by the developing embryo during seed maturation, leaving the cotyledons to function as the primary nutrient storage tissue.

A lemon seed is a dicot. Dicots have seeds with two cotyledons, which store nutrients for the developing seedling. Lemon seeds also show other typical dicot characteristics such as branching veins in their leaves.

Another name for a seeds stored food is the endosperm.
A flamboyant tree is a dicot, belonging to the Fabaceae family. It is a flowering tree with compound leaves and produces seeds with two cotyledons, characteristics of dicots.
Dicot
The endosperm tissue of a dicot seed contains nutrients such as starch, proteins, and lipids that provide energy and nourishment for the developing seedling. It serves as a food reserve to support the growth of the embryo during germination.
