Seeds have evolved various strategies to survive harsh conditions, such as dormancy, desiccation tolerance, and protective seed coats. Dormancy allows the seed to remain in a state of suspended animation until conditions improve, while desiccation tolerance enables them to withstand extreme dryness. Protective seed coats provide a physical barrier against external threats, safeguarding the seed until conditions are suitable for germination.
germinating seed absorb a lot of their nutrients from the cotyledons during the first stages of germination
depends what is removed. if it is the embryo no, if it is part of a cotyledon then it may survive
The coconut is known for traveling long distances by floating across oceans. The coconut seed is buoyant and can survive for up to 120 days at sea, allowing it to be dispersed to far-flung locations.
Seed plants carry out long distance reproduction by animals, rain, wind, or pollen.
water it
no
The plant embryo can suvive inside the ssed because it derives its food from the endosperm and cotyledon.
Seeds are adapted for long survival through mechanisms such as dormancy, which allows the seed to remain inactive until conditions are favorable for germination. They also have protective seed coats that shield them from environmental stressors like desiccation and pathogens. Additionally, some seeds contain compounds that help them resist decay and maintain viability for extended periods of time.
Yes. The palm tree's seed can grow without water because the palm's seed is inside its hairy coconut shell. The shell contains milk so the seed can start growing even without water.

Inside a seed is a food supply for the developing plant embryo. The outside of a seed is a protective coat. This allows a seed to survive cold weather or a lack of water. A seed can remain dormant for months, or even years, while waiting for the right growing conditions.
Two characteristics of a seed that help an embryo survive harsh conditions are dormancy, where the embryo remains inactive until conditions are favorable for germination, and a protective seed coat that shields the embryo from extreme temperatures, drought, and predators.
yes
ftw. >:D
They can only survive the suns radiation.
The EE in seed has a long E vowel, as in feed and weed.
