any kind of a seed, just want to know what is the purpose

It is the plants means of propagation which allows germination to take place only when the conditions are right for growth. The seed also allows for dispersal via wind, or through the gut of grazing animals or birds, and this helps the plant spread to different ecosystems. Many plants would not survive extreme heat or cold or lack of moisture if they were not able to produce seed.

A seed, as many others have noticed is the means by which certain types of plants reproduce.
The purpose of a seed, once it's been fertilised is to bear off, either on the wind, or on (or in) an animal in order to start a new plant.
Plants will generally produce many seeds for distribution this way, as some will germinate and sprout, and some wont, and the wider the seeds are spread, the more chance that batch of seedlings has for survival

A seed is just like an egg in a woman it enables reproduction but only if fertilized.Many seeds just end up as feed for birds and other animals.
