No.\n\nLike most seeds it contains carbohydrate, protein and fat (oils). There are many minerals and some vitamins (though you would not select sweetcorn as a source of vitamins).\n\nThis is only to be expected since seeds must contain everything (except water) that an embryonic plant requires until it can grow above ground and then photosynthesise.\n\nAdditionally, the seed coat of many seeds is fairly undigestible and therefore provides dietary fibre (roughage). This is the only bit that does not provide nutrients, yet it is important in our diet.

It's doubtful (or very rare) that they actually "jump" above the surface of the ground, but they can certainly roll and tumble along in different directions. Just as pineapples are not apples and peanuts are not nuts, the jumping bean is not a bean, nor is it a seed. It is actually a small, thin-shelled section of a seed capsule containing the larva of a small gray moth called the jumping bean moth (Laspeyresia saltitans). After consuming the seed within the capsule section, the robust, yellowish-white larva has the peculiar habit of throwing itself forcibly from one wall to the other, thereby causing the jumping movements of the capsule. Mexican jumping bean capsules typically separate into three parts or sections, some of which contain a moth larva. It is these separate sections (technically called carpels) that are sold as "jumping beans."

4While a large crowd was gathering and people were coming to Jesus from town after town, he told this parable: 5"A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds of the air ate it up. 6Some fell on rock, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. 7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. 8Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown." \n      When he said this, he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear." \n\n 9His disciples asked him what this parable meant. 10He said, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to others I speak in parables, so that, \n   " 'though seeing, they may not see; \n      though hearing, they may not understand.'[a] \n\n 11"This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. 12Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. 13Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. 14The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life's worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature. 15But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.

The seeds come from a tropical herb Sesamum indicum.

It's related to a chemical called a germination inhibitor that prevents the seed from sprouting... but that chemical can go away prematurely... as seen here:\n\nhttp://www.cookingforengineers.com/article.php?id=57\n\nRead more:\n"Until then, they remain dormant. Germination inhibitors are part of the make-up of every seed. They actually prevent a seed from germinating until its chances of survival are good. Usually chemical in nature (five per cent of seeds are simply waterproof, dormant until their seed coat cracks), germination inhibitors put a seed into dormancy. Without these, a tomato seed, for example, would spout right inside the fruit of the plant that formed it, where there is moisture and warmth, good conditions for germination. Inhibitors give a seed time to travel away from the parent plant, and allow it to overwinter, or be stored, giving that seed the best possible chance to reproduce successfully and to spread. Germination inhibitors `wear off’ over time, allowing a seed to sprout the next year."

I thinks they mean sunflower seeds, which is a very popular snack around the world.\nThis is a metaphor for disregarding life- eating something that life spring from.

I'm not sure I understand your question, but just there is a seed it doesn't mean it will germinate.  Tests are run to obtain a germination rate, usually 80%-90%.

jasmine (jăs'mĭn, jăz–) or jessamine (jĕs'əmĭn) , any plant of the genus Jasminum of the family Oleaceae (olive family). The genus, which includes shrubs and clambering plants, is an Old World group, chiefly of tropical and subtropical regions but cultivated elsewhere, outdoors in mild climates and in greenhouses farther north. The blossoms, mostly white or yellow, are usually very fragrant, some being used for scenting tea; the oil obtained from the flowers is utilized in perfumery. The common jasmine (J. officinale) has white flowers and glossy deciduous leaves. Both names are often given to other plants, such as Cape jasmine (see madder) and Carolina jasmine (see logania). Jasmine is classified in the division Magnoliophyta, class Magnoliopsida, order Scrophulariales, family Oleaceae.
