Food store
B
sunlight
C
embryo
D
animals
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: Explanation: The seed gets energy from the food that is stored in it. By breaking it through aerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Seeds need oxygen so that they can produce energy for germination and growth. The embryo gets energy by breaking down its food stores. Like all organisms, this is done through a process known as aerobic respiration.-a series of reactions where energy is released from glucose, using oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Seeds have stored energy in the form of starch which feeds them until the leaves can begin the process of photosynthesis. In some ways they can be compared to batteries, holding energy until it is needed. Seed size and planting depth impact the process of germination because they affect the seeds energy stores.

Detailed explanation-4: -The outer covering of a seed is called seed coat. The seed coat protects the baby plant residing inside the seed. The swollen part of the seed called cotyledon stores food and all the other essential nutrients required for the baby plant.

Detailed explanation-5: -Seed leaves or cotyledons: Cotyledons are present inside the seed. Cotyledons absorb the food from the parent plant and store it for the embryo. They also protect the embryo.
