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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Seeds have a seed coat which protects them while they grow and develop, usually underground. Inside the seed there are is an embryo (the baby plant) and cotyledons. When the seed begins to grow, one part of the embryo becomes the plant while the other part becomes the root of the plant.

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: -Inside of the seed would be a tiny plant called the embryo. The two large parts of the seed are called the cotyledons. The cotyledons are stored food that the young plant will use while it is growing.

Detailed explanation-5: -The radicle is the part of the seed that gives rise to the new plant. It is the first part of a seedling to emerge from the seed during the process of germination.
