Question

Some angiosperm seeds are said to be albuminous, whereas a few others are said to have a perisperm. Explain each with the help of an example.

Answer 1

Albuminous seeds retain a part of endosperm as it is not completely used up during embryo development. e.g., wheat, maize, barley, castor, sunflower. 

When remnants of nucellus are persistent it is said to have a perisperm. Example; biack pepper, beat.
