Objective: The student will dissect and compare dicotyledon and monocotyledon seeds. The student will identify the seed coat, the embryo, and the food for the plant. The student will predict which seed type will germinate first.

Seeds of higher plants accumulate storage materials such as carbohydrates and proteins in cotyledons or endosperms, and the reserves are degraded to supply carbon and nitrogen sources to further seedling growth (Bewley and Black, 1994). Endospermic monocotyledon seeds store the reserves in the endosperms,

(Baskin and Baskin, 2004). According to Martin (1946), the level of embryo development in ripe monocotyledon seeds varies from underdeveloped rudimentary embryos to fully developed linear embryos. Genera that include species with underdeveloped embryos are especially common in Liliales and certain Asparagales families.

SUMMARY: This is a lesson on the initial growth of a seed. The three main parts of a seed will be discussed and explored, as well as the part they play in the seeds growth and development. ... These are called monocotyledon seeds.

Monocotyledon seeds are important food items for a number of psitacids, such as Caca-tua galerita (Forshaw 1977), Cacatua roseicapilla, Psephotus haematonotus (Westcott & Cockburn; 1988), Pezoporus wallicus wallicus (Bryant 1994) and Psephotus dissimilis (Garnett & Crowley;
