Question

what is the source of food for germinating seed

Answer 1

Answer:

Endosperm

Explanation:

The endosperm is tissue that is found inside the embryo sac inside the seed. The endosperm can be developed in many different ways. From smooth to mealy to hard and even as a liquid. The cotyledons are the first seed leaves and can store food for the embryo but also aid as a food source once the plant germinates.

Answer 2

Answer:

Seeds wait to germinate until three needs are met: water, correct temperature (warmth), and a good location (such as in soil). During its early stages of growth, the seedlings relies upon the food supplies stored with it in the seed until it is large enough for its own leaves to begin making food through photosynthesis.
