GPT-5 mini · Answer

Correct answer: Seeds protect the plant embryo and its food source.

Explanation: Seeds enclose and shield the developing embryo and contain stored nutrients that support germination and early growth, plus allow dormancy and dispersal. The other choices are incorrect: seeds don’t transport water/nutrients (that’s vascular tissue), they result from sexual reproduction rather than bypass it, and they don’t perform photosynthesis.
