CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The endosperm contains the nutrients stored in it. It provides nutrients to the seed in the form of starch, carbohydrates and proteins to support the embryo during germination. It is located below the seed coat.

Detailed explanation-2: -The embryo’s food, called endosperm, may be in the seed leaves (also called cotyledons) or it may be outside the seed leaves and be absorbed as the seed germinates. Endosperm food sources can be in the form of carbohydrates, proteins, or fats.

Detailed explanation-3: -The embryo inside the seed is made up of a small shoot and a small root. The root is the first to emerge from the seed. As it grows, it anchors the plant to the ground, and begins absorbing water through the root. After the root absorbs water, the shoot begins to emerge from the seed.

Detailed explanation-4: -A fertilized ovule develops into a seed. Seed has the embryo within it which contains a plumule and radicle. Embryo is formed from the zygote which is formed when the egg is fertilized by the male gamete. Plumule and the radicle develops into a shoot and the root, respectively.

Detailed explanation-5: -Food stored inside a seed is called the endosperm. This contains enough food to help the tiny plant grow big enough so that it can start making food by itself. The embryo and the endosperm are protected by a hard outer shell called the seed coat.
