The bulk of the seed leaves are absorbed and the depleted remains are shed - this is very obvious in legumes - peas and beans. In birds, the chick hatches with enough yolk left to sustain it for anything up to a week - it depends on the species; at the end of that time, the chick will have absorbed all of the yolk and must be digesting solid food.
