Answer:
Explanation:
ENDOSPERMIC SEED
The word endosperm means "seed within", so, literally speaking, an endospermic seed would have seed within the seed. A non-endospermic seed, therefore, would NOT have seed within the seed. As plant embryos develop, they need some source of food. Our world has two types of seeds, endospermic and non-endospermic.
examples are - Zea mays,barley,rice,wheat,onion.
NON-ENDOSPERMIC SEED
In non-endospermic seed, endosperm is absent.food is stored in cotyledons.
suspensor,haustoria substitute the endosperm.
examples are - pea,bean,gram,jack fruit,mustard,sunflower.
