The seed embryo is nourished by stored starch in the plant.
it is the inside of the seed The cotyledon provides nourishment to the seedling at the time of germination
germination when plant's seeds fall from the female plant then the environment takes care of it.
The coconut plants store food in the endosperm of the nuts. This is called copra of commerce. Coconut oil is extracted from this part of the fruit. At the time of germination, this food is used by the growing seedling.
the conditions for the seed germination includes appropriate amount of water in the surrounding soil then the nutrients should be available then the carbon dioxide concentration and the absence of chemicals like absisic acid which can cause a seed to remain in a dormant state for long time.
The cotyledon of the seed develops into a seedling at the time of germination.
Yes, seed can be viable and dormant at a same time because dormancy is natural and physiological but temporary barrier for seed germination while non-vaibility is permanent unability of seed germination.
Germination is the point at which the plant starts to grow from the seed.
At the time of pea seed germination only plumule comes out from the soil because its mode of germination is hypogeal. The entire seed remains undergound except the plumule.
It can be. If you are looking at the germination time under different conditions of temperature and humidity etc.
Yes it is important because that is the time the plant emerges from a seed and begins to grow.
The seed embryo is nourished by stored starch in the plant.
Yes the water affects the size of mango seed during germination. Water diffuses through the seed coats into the embryo, which has been almost completely dry during the time of dormancy, causing a swelling of the seed; the swelling is often so great that the seed coat is ruptured.
It takes about 7-10 days for a green bean seed to full germinate.
seeds whereby the endosperm is present in mature seed/ Edited answer: An endospermic seed has plenty of endosperm to nurish the seedling at the time of germination, as in case of wheat, barley and rice etc.
plants have developed varius types of seed Dormancy is a mechanism to prevent germination during unsuitable ecological conditions, when the probability of seedling survival is low. One important function of most seeds is delayed germination, which allows time for dispersal and prevents germination of all the seeds at same time. The staggering of germination safeguards some seeds and seedlings from suffering damage or death from short periods of bad weather or from transient herbivores; it also allows some seeds to germinate when competition from other plants for light and water might be less intense. Another form of delayed seed germination is seed quiescence, which is different than true seed dormancy and occurs when a seed fails to germinate because the external environmental conditions are too dry or warm or cold for germination. Many species of plants have seeds that delay germination for many months or years, and some seeds can remain in the soil seed bank for more than 50 years before germination. i got this info from wikipedia
Any seed has a hard coat thet protects the seed until the conditions for germination are suitable for survival of the seedling.
