The seed coat is the seed's essential protection against unfriendly ecological circumstances.

Define seed coat:

  • A seed coat safeguards the inside pieces of a seed.
  • The seed coat has two layers.
  • The external layer is thick and known as the testa.
  • The inward layer is slender and known as tegmen.

Functions of seed coat:

  • A hard seed coat shields the seed from mechanical pressure as well as from microorganism intrusion and from temperature and mugginess vacillations during capacity.
  • A thick seed coat safeguards the seed from daylight and water.
  • It forestalls the deficiency of water and passage of parasites inside the seeds.
  • The hard seed coats forestall germination during horrible natural conditions.
  • Without the seed coat, the seed probably won't have the option to make due.
  • The seed coat can shield from outside dangers like bugs.
