Heat is important to seeds because the sun evaporates the water and so the seeds don't get flooded.

== == Heat is important to plants or seeds beacuse, the sun or the heat have to give energy to the plant for it to survive.

Yes it does.


Simple lab experiments can prove this:


To show that heat is released from germinating seeds


Apparatus Used:

Vacuum flask, thermometer, Wheat seeds, Cotton Wool

Method:

· Two vacuum flasks were prepared as follows: one vacuum flask A was filled with soaked germinating seeds (eg. Wheat) while the other B was filled with boiled seeds. Both groups if seeds were soaked in a dilute solution of bleach to kill off any micro organisms that would otherwise influence the results.

· A thermometer was placed it each flask such that the thermometer bulb was immersed in the middle of the seeds. The mouth of each flask was plugged with cotton wool and both flasks were left for two days.


Result:

The temperature in A was much higher than that in B.
