Seeds

Seeds are the reproductive units of plants, containing an embryo, stored nutrients, and a protective coat. They develop from fertilized ovules and serve as a vessel for a new plant’s growth. When conditions such as soil, moisture, and temperature become favorable, seeds germinate, allowing the embryo to grow into a mature plant. This process ensures the continuation of plant species, enabling reproduction and dispersal across different environments. Seeds are essential for agriculture, forest regeneration, and natural ecosystems, supporting biodiversity and food production.
