Vedclass · Answer

(C) Endosperm may either be completely consumed by the developing embryo (e.g.,pea,groundnut,beans) before seed maturation,or it may persist in the mature seed (e.g.,castor and coconut) and be used up during seed germination.Seeds in which the endosperm persists are called endospermic or albuminous seeds.Since both castor and coconut retain endosperm in their mature seeds,they are examples of endospermic seeds.
