Across
- 3. coat (testa) - The product is a structure in which the embryo is protected from temperature extremes by its state of desiccation and is often guarded from further drying and from mechanical or biological degradation by the seed coats.
- 5. - the primary bud of a plant embryo usually situated at the apex of the hypocotyl and consisting of leaves and an epicotyl.
- 7. - a minute opening in the integument of an ovule of a seed plant
- 8. - It is a berry with an outer hard rind formed of epicarp and a part of mesocarp.
- 10. - any fleshy watery fruit of the melon or cucumber type, with numerous seeds and a firm rind.
Down
- 1. - a many-celled and many-seeded indehiscent fruit that is pulpy within and has a hard or woody rind
- 2. - Is a scar left by the stalk which attached the ovule to the ovary wall before it became a seed.
- 4. - An embryo is the early stage of development of a multicellular organism. In general, in organisms that reproduce sexually, embryonic development is the part of the life cycle that begins just after fertilization and continues through the formation of body structures, such as tissues and organs.
- 6. (hypocotyl) - The hypocotyl (short for "hypocotyledonous stem", meaning "below seed leaf") is the stem of a germinating seedling, found below the cotyledons (seed leaves) and above the radicle (root).
- 9. leaf (cotyledon) -
