An ancient date palm seed germinated and grew into a healthy plant. what was the source of nutrients for the young sporophyte embryo during germination of the date palm seed? what was the source of nutrients for the young sporophyte embryo during germination of the date palm seed? sunlight food stored within the seed water taken up by the germinating seed the surrounding soil

The correct answer will be option-food stored within the seed

Explanation:

The plant embryo is the part of the seed which is formed after the fertilization and forms the earliest forms of life of plant including plant roots, leaves and stem.

The embryo is protected by a hard protective layer forming a structure called seed which also encloses reserve food for the plants.

If date palm seed germinates after a dormant phase for a long period of time, then the food material received by the growing embryo will be provided by the reserve material as well as the endosperm (angiosperm) which also acts as a reserve food material.

Thus, food stored within the seed is the correct answer.

humans are now responsible for causing changes in the environment that hurt animals and plant species. we take up more space on earth for our homes and cities. we pollute habitats. human activity often changes or destroys the habitats that plants and animals need to survive.
