These cavities are known as lysigenous cavities.
They are only present in monocot plants.
Sunflower is a dicot plant, so it does not have lysigenous cavities.

Cycas has two cotyledons but it is not considered a dicot.It also does not have lysigenous cavities.
Pinus are also neither monocots nor dicots.
