A seed is a small, hard structure that contains a plant embryo. The embryo is a tiny plant that is waiting to grow. The seed also contains food for the embryo to use while it is growing.
Seeds are important because they help plants to reproduce. When a seed falls to the ground, it can germinate and grow into a new plant.
