A seed is an embryonic plant enclosed in a protective outer covering known as a seed coat. It is the product of the ripened ovule of gymnosperm and angiosperm plants, which occurs after fertilization and some growth within the mother plant. It contains the capacity to grow into a new plant given the right conditions of soil, water, and sunlight.
