Want this question answered?
more chlorine = less seed germination
lol
The seed will need to respire aerobically (glucose + oxygen= energy + CO2 + Water) in order to release the energy needed to grow.
it affects it by having non-toxic bleach inside of the water,therefore making it clean.
the general "rule of thumb" in horticulture for seed sowing - the seed should be covered to double depth the diameter of the seed - no more. Some seeds however, should not be covered for germination - these are normally very fine seed such as Begonia
Oxygen gas is needed by the seed during germination. Aerobic respiration takes place during seed germination to release lots of energy required for this process.
Seed germination requires the proper combination of oxygen, temperature, moisture and light. As the seed takes up water, it activates enzymes that direct the process of germination.
For germination to occur a seed has to absorb water
Epigeal germination is when the cotyledons emerge above the soil surface during seed germination. Hypogeal germination is when the cotyledons remain below the soil surface during seed germination.
Temperature has the greatest effect on seed germination.
during germination
The conditions necessary for seed germination include:optimum temperature,oxygen,adequate supply of water,sunlight,moisture content,soil ph......
Epigeal germination is the process in which the seed leaves or the cotyledons are brought on to the surface along with the shoot during germination. Hypogeal germination is the process in which the seed leaves or the cotyledons remain below the soil surface during germination.
Water Oxygen A suitable temperature.
A seed derives its food from the cotyledones or endosperm during germination
To nourish the seed prior to and during germination
Conditions necessary for germination of seed: 1: Suitable temperature range 2: Oxygen 3: Water
