The aleurone layer in a monocot seed plays a crucial role in:
Protecting the embryo from mechanical damage
Storing starch and other reserve materials
Synthesizing and secreting hydrolytic enzymes for endosperm breakdown
Absorbing water and initiating germination
The suspensor in a developing dicot embryo plays a critical role in:
Protecting the embryo from pathogens and environmental stress
Synthesizing growth hormones and regulating embryo development
Forming the root apical meristem and initiating root development
Pushing the embryo into the endosperm and facilitating nutrient absorption
