The correct statement would be as follows:

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer;

-Endosperm

-Cotyledon

The food for dicot embryos is stored in the endosperm while food for monocot embryos is stored in the cotyledons.

Step-by-step explanation;

-The storage of food reserves in angiosperm seeds differs between monocots and dicots.

-Seeds need a supply of food to support the embryo plant until it can collect its own food. In monocots, there is usually a supply of food, called endosperm, inside the seed coat but separate from the cotyledon. In dicots, the cotyledons contain the endosperm.
