Very simply, once a plant has flowered and the flower has been pollinated, it develops one or more seeds which contain a miniature new plant surrounded by a store of food to help the new plant grow until it can make its own food.
These seeds dry and get scattered and lie around in a dormant state until the conditions are good for the new plant to grow (this may be a warming of the soil in spring or in dry areas the arrival of rain). When this happens the new miniature plant begins to grow and the food store is converted to sugar to feed the new plant. A root then grows out of the seed and goes into the soil while a little later one or two seed leaves will appear above ground to catch the sun. This process is called germination and a germinated seed is one that is producing a root and seed leaves.

∙ 14y agoTooth Germination (twinning) is a dental anomaly, characterized by incomplete splitting of a single tooth germ. The result is a tooth that is wide mesiodistally, an incisal notch, a single root, and commonly a wide pulp cavity. Tooth germination is clinically diagnosed with a radiograph.

What foes germinate mean?
To germinate is to begin life, as in "the tomato seed germinated and grew into a tomato plant."
Do plant seeds contain food?
Yes, the cotyledons in the seed provide the embryo with nutrition until it has germinated and self sufficient
Susan germinated a seed and watered the growing plant regularly. The plant produced flowers in the second year and died. Which type of plant could it be?
The plant is classed as a biannual (flowering in the second year).
What observations indicate that a seed has germinated?
The seed coat has busted and the seedling is beginning to emerge
Why is light only necessary one the plant has germinated?
Because the seed only needs water and nutrients to germinate and turn into a plant. Once the plant grows above the surface, it needs the sun In order to produce glucose for food
What is the effect of sodium on plant germination?
In most cases, adding sodium to a plant will kill the seed if it has not germinated, and if it has germinated, it will kill the plant. I'm not 100% positive, but I'm pretty sure this is true.
What is the respiratory rate of a dormant seed versus a germinated seed?
foe a dormant seed it is almost negligible and for a germinated seed it is more.
What foes germinate mean?

What is a young plant that has germinated from a seed?
A young plant growing in the seed is called the embryo. After some days the shoot bursts up from the seed and comes out of the ground. Underneath, the roots come out to transfer water.
A seed breaks open when it is?
Germinated.

When can you say that a seed has germinated?
tang ina mo !
What is the third stage of the plant life cycle?
The three main stages are...1. Seed (when the plant is still inside the shell and has not yet germinated)2. Sprout (when the plant has germinated, but not created male/female reproductive organs)3. Adult (when the plant has created it's reproductive organs and can create another plant aka a seed)
What observations indicate that a seed has germinated?
The seed coat has busted and the seedling is beginning to emerge
When a seed has germinated what does it need to become mature?
a germinated seed will run to maturity from 30 days for radishesto 120 days for some variety of tomatoes and even longer for pumkins
Formula in computing the percentage of germination?
The formula for calculating the percentage of germination is: Number of germinated seeds / Total number of seeds planted x 100. This formula allows you to determine the percentage of seeds that have successfully germinated out of the total number of seeds planted.
