Seed Structure and Function

Monocot seed
Dicot seed
 
                   

     The endosperm will supply the food for the baby embyo

      The Cotyledon is the part of the embryo that digests the endosperm      and feeds the embryo      

      The embryo is the the actual baby and will grow into a plant

The dicot does not have endosperm because it is dissolved in the 2 cotyledons
