Answer 2

Answer:-

★ Structure of Monocotyledonous Seed:

→ Generally, monocot seeds are endospermic but some are non-endospermic (e.g. orchids).

→ In cereals such as maize, the seed coat is membranous and generally fused with the fruit wall.

→ The endosperm is bulky and stores food.

→ The outer covering of endosperm separates the embryo by a proteinous layer called aleurone layer.

→ The embryo is small and situated in a groove at one end of the endosperm. It consists of one large and shield shaped cotyledon known as scutellum and a short axis with a plumule and a radicle.

→ The plumule is protected in a sheath called coleoptile and radicle is protected in a sheath called coleorhiza.
