What is the main characteristic of dicot seeds?
Answers
The outer most covering of a dicot seed is the seed coat. It has two layers the outer testa and the inner tegmen.
Hilium is a scar on the seed coat through which the developing seeds were attached to the fruit.
Near the hilium lies a small pore called the micropyle.
The embryo lies within the seed coat and consists of a embryonic axis and two cotyledons. The cotyledons are often fleshy and full of reserve food materials.
The radicle and plumule are present at the two ends of the embryonal axis.
Certain seeds have an endospermic tissue that contains stored food for the embryo. Examples of endospermic seeds are castor, cotton, and coffee.
Non endospermic seeds like bean, gram, and pea do not have a stored food reserve

DICOTYLEDONS:-
The dicotyledons, also known as dicots (or more rarely dicotyls[2]), are one of the two groups into which all the flowering plants or angiosperms were formerly divided. The name refers to one of the typical characteristics of the group, namely that the seed has two embryonic leaves or cotyledons. There are around 200,000 species within this group.[3] The other group of flowering plants were called monocotyledons or monocots, typically having one cotyledon. Historically, these two groups formed the two divisions of the flowering plants.
