Solution

The correct option is D Leaves in the seed
Seedling is a young plant that develops out of an embryo of a seed.
Seeds have their own energy source as cotyledons (present as leafy structures in the embryo).
They are the source of food supply for the seed. Seed leaves provide energy for the early growth of a developing embryo.

Thus, the correct answer is option D.
