The growth of plant starts from seed. Seed contains enough food in its cotyledon for seed germination and subsequent growth. The embryo of seed includes germ and plumule. The germ will grow into stems and leaves, and the plumule will grow into the roots of plant. The specimens of broad beans are the teaching aids of General Studies in primary school, showing the germination and growth of broad bean.
