Let’s go step by step to label the parts of the seed using the word bank:
seed coat, root, leaves, food
Looking at the diagram:
1. The
outermost layer that protects the whole seed — this is the
seed coat.
→ Arrow pointing to the outer edge (bottom right) =
seed coat
2. Inside the seed, there’s a big area that stores energy for the baby plant — this is called
food (also known as cotyledon in some seeds).
→ Large arrow pointing to the center/bulk of the seed =
food
3. At the top inside, there’s a small structure with little leaf-like shapes — these are the
leaves of the embryo (baby plant).
→ Top left arrow pointing to the tiny leafy part =
leaves
4. Also at the top, but below the leaves, there’s a pointy part that will grow down into the soil — that’s the
root.
→ Top right arrow pointing to the pointed tip under the leaves =
root
So matching each box:
- Top left box → points to
leaves
- Top right box → points to
root
- Bottom left box → points to
food
- Bottom right box → points to
seed coat
Final Answer:
Top left: leaves
Top right: root
Bottom left: food
Bottom right: seed coat
