Seed coat
2parts of seed coat
Testa
Tegmen
Outer layer develops from the integument of the ovule
Testa
Inner integument of the ovule
Tegmen
Stored food of the plant in the seed
Endosperm
Part that will form the growing seedling after germination
Embryo
Scar on the surface of the seed left where the seed broke from the stalk
Hilum
Food storage organs for digestion and absorption of food from the endosperm and may function as leaves after germination
Cotyledons
Encloses the young primary shoot
Coleoptile
Becomes the shoot system of the new plant as the seed germinates
Epicotyl
Between the epicotyl and radicle
Hypocotyl
Becomes the root system
Radicle
Covers the root tip in case of monocot plant
Coleorhiza
