The structure of Seed monocot is explained below:

1.Embryos of monocot seeds have one large cotyledon, and that’s called scutellum. This scutellum is shield-shaped and is located towards the side of the embryo axis. In monocot seeds, the endosperm is covered from a proteinous layer called aleurone layer. The embryo axis of monocots is of shoot tip; they are enclosed in a sheath called coleoptile and a root tip radicle which is enclosed in coleorhiza.

2.Most of the monocot seeds are thick, swollen endosperms for nourishment. They are also called albuminous. During the embryo development, the endosperms are not entirely developed, and it is the nourishing tissues in seeds.
