Yes you can germinate a seed without it being covered as long as it receives sufficient moisture during germination. Normally small (or extremely small) seeds are germinated without covering (e.g. begonia). Note some seeds do require darkness for germination.

Well, there's seed development when the inflorescences of the seed head stop flowering and everything goes into seed production, and then there is germination, where a plant grows from a seed that was planted in the soil.
Will manipulating the seed affect its germination?
Without germination in the plant, the plant is not able to grow. The germination is the begining of life for the seed plant however the rate of germination is not directly related to rates of plant growth one can find speedy germinating seeds which grow slowly and vice versa.zaf.
