  • Two cotyledons plus an embryonal axis make up a normal dicotyledonous embryo. The epicotyl, which is the section of the embryonal axis that lies above the level of the cotyledons, ends with the plumule or stem tip. 

  • The hypocotyl, a cylindrical section below the level of the cotyledons, ends in the radicle or root tip at its lower end. 

  • A root cap protects the root tip. Monocotyledon embryos only have one cotyledon. 

  • The cotyledon, known as a scutellum in the grass family, is located on one side (lateral) of the embryonal axis.

  • Option  2 is the correct answer.
