What is It Most Likely That Most Seeds are Packed

Question

What is it most likely that most seeds are packed with?
A) either water or starch
B) either starch or lipids
C) either starch or proteins
D) either lipids or proteins

Accepted Answer

Most seeds are packed with either starch or lipids as these serve as energy sources for the seedling until it can produce its own food through photosynthesis. Starch is a common energy storage compound in many plants, while lipids are used in some seeds, especially those that need to survive in arid conditions, as they provide a more concentrated energy source.
