Cereals are endospermic seed. In endospermic seed,
the embryo consists of an upper shield shaped scutellum wich is actually a
reduced cotyledon. The scutellum is closely pressed against the endosperm and
helps in the translocation of nutrients from endosperm to the growing embryo at
the time of germination and seedling growth. So, the correct answer is 'Single shield-shaped cotyledon of cereals'.
