Solution:
During the process of the development of the embryo, the food stored up in the endosperm is continuously drawn up by the developing embryo and thus completely exhausted. Such seeds are known as exalbuminous or non-endospermic. The common examples are : exalbuminous - gram, pea, bean, tamarind, orchid, etc.
