Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

The young plant that develops from the ____, or fertilized egg, is called the embryo and it already has the beginning of roots, stem, and leaves.

A	cotyledon
B	stomata
C	zygote
D	phloem

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -A seedling is a young plant or sporophyte developing out of a plant embryo from a seed. Seedling development starts with germination of the seed. A typical young seedling consists of three main parts: the radicle (embryonic root), the hypocotyl (embryonic shoot), and the cotyledons (seed leaves).

Detailed explanation-2: -The germ is the plant embryo which would form the new plant if germinated and is characterized by a high lipid and protein content.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endosperm, a temporary food supply, is packed around the embryo in the form of special leaves called cotyledons or seed leaves.

Detailed explanation-4: -Shortly after fertilization, the zygote undergoes a series of divisions according to patterns characteristic of each species to produce the embryo. The seed coat encloses an embryo, differentiated into radicle, plumule, and cotyledons.
