Cotyledon: A cotyledon stores food in a seed. When the seed sprouts, the cotyledons provide the baby plant with nutrition and form leaves.

Embryo: The embryo is the most important part of a seed. The embryo consists of all the parts, i.e., plumule and radicle, needed by the seed to develop into a new plant.

Testa: Testa is also known as the seed coat. Seeds have a thick or thin seed coat. Seed coats are used to protect the internal parts of the seed.
