Select the true statements concerning seeds. A: Seeds allow for dormancy until favorable conditions arise. B: The fruit provides nutrition to the developing embryo. C: The ovule dries and forms the seed coat. D: The seed stores all of the nutrition and water the embryo needs to germinate. E: Seeds can resist conditions that would kill a live plant. F: Seeds are key to wide dispersal of offspring. Solution Choices A, C, D, E and F are correct. Reason: Seeds are the germline representative which store the complete genetic information for development of a complete plant. The seeds contain all the nutrients required to nourish a developing embryo. Until favourable conditions of moisture, temperature and light are perceived, the seed remains dormant and protects the underlying embryo from damages due to outer harsh conditions. During seed formation, the ovary becomes the seed matrix and the ovule becomes the seed coat. Further, various morphological modifications take place in the seed structures which make them disperse easily through air/water/animals to promote cross-fertilization..
