The embryo of a grass seed is enclosed by two protective sheaths, a(n) _________, which covers the young shoot, and a(n) __________, which covers the young root.
1. plumule; radical
2. hypocotyl; picotyls
3. coleoptile; coleorrhiza
4. scutellum; replum
Epicotyl has a shoot apex and a few leaf primordial enclosed in a hollow foliar structure called as the:

(2) Coleorhiza
(3) Scutellum
(4) Perisperm
In a typical dicotyledonous embryo, the cylindrical portion below the level of cotyledons is _________ that terminates at its lower and in the ____________
1. Epicotyl, plumule
2. Epicotyl, radicle
3. Hypocotyl, radicle
4. Hypocotyl, plumule
During the development of typical embryo sac from the functional megaspore

2. Cytokinesis is present after each karyokinesis
3. Nuclear divisions are followed immediately by cell wall formation
4. Cell walls are laid down after the 4-nucleated stage
