Best answer
  • In albuminous seeds, the endosperm tissue persists in the mature seed and is used up at the time of germination. 
  • In these seeds, the embryo is minute, whereas in exalbuminous seeds the endosperm is used up during embryo development and the mature seed does not contain endosperm. 
  • In such seeds, the embryo is bulky and food is stored in cotyledons of the seed.
