Name the outer part of seed?
The outer part of a seed is called 'Seed Coat'.
Explanation :
The heavy covering of the seed is called the 'seed coat'. The outermost part of the seed serves as a protective covering for the seed. This is known as 'seed coat'. It has two layers. The first outer layer is called the 'testa', which is the thick layer. The inner layer is called the 'tegmen', which is a relatively less thick layer.
The outer layer of the 'seed coat' is called 'testa', that layer protects the seed from outside sunlight and water. This layer protects the inside of the seed from damage caused by water. Apart from this, no parasite can enter the seed. This layer protects the seed from these parasites. The seed coat of some seeds is extremely hard, which prevents the germination of seeds under unfavourable environmental conditions.
