Solution

Dicotyledonous embryo

  1. The embryo of dicot plants with two cotyledons is referred to as a dicotyledonous embryo.
  2. Two cotyledons are normally linked to the embryonal axis in a mature dicot embryo.
  3. The epicotyl is the portion of the embryonal axis that is above the level of cotyledons, and the hypocotyl is the region that is below the embryonal axis.
  4. While the terminal component of the hypocotyl creates the radicle, the terminal section of the epicotyl creates the plumule.
  5. As a result, the radicle, embryonal axis, and cotyledons make up a normal dicotyledonous embryo.

Final Answer: A typical dicotyledonous embryo consists of the radicle, embryonal axis, and cotyledons.
