| 41. | The cotyledons are open, similar to those of almonds, and covered with a whitish film.

|
| 43. | Every seed has enough food stored inside its cotyledon to germinate and grow a few roots and leaves.

| 44. | A . Seed Coat B . Cotyledon C . Hilum D . Plumule E . Radicle F . Endosperm
|
| 45. | In the case of dicot seedlings whose cotyledons are photosynthetic, the cotyledons are functionally similar to leaves.
|
| 46. | In the case of dicot seedlings whose cotyledons are photosynthetic, the cotyledons are functionally similar to leaves.
|
| 47. | These seeds develop by the plumule growing up through the soil with the cotyledons remaining below the surface.
|
| 48. | Seedling leaves arise 0.6 to 0.8 cm beyond the cotyledons and are oppositely arranged.
|
| 49. | In seed plants, the embryo will develop one or more " seed leaves " ( cotyledons ).
|
| 50. | With their chewing mouthparts, beetles make small round pits in the cotyledons and leaves of young plants.
