The correct Answer is:
To answer the question about endospermic seeds, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Definition of Endospermic Seeds Endospermic seeds are seeds that retain their endosperm, which is the tissue that provides nourishment to the developing embryo. In these seeds, the endosperm is not completely consumed by the embryo during its development. ### Step 2: Identify Examples of Endospermic Seeds Common examples of endospermic seeds include: - **Castor**: This plant produces seeds that contain a significant amount of endosperm. - **Barley**: A cereal grain that also has endospermic seeds. - **Coconut**: The seed of the coconut palm is another example of an endospermic seed. ### Step 3: Analyze the Options Given The question provides the following options: - A. Castor - B. Barley - C. Coconut - D. All of these Since all three options (A, B, and C) are examples of plants that produce endospermic seeds, we can conclude that the correct answer is: ### Step 4: Conclusion The correct answer is **D. All of these**. All the listed plants (Castor, Barley, and Coconut) produce endospermic seeds. ---
