all i know is that it's the young shoot!
in epigeal germination cotyledons and plumule comes out from soil in hypogeal germinatin only plumule comes out from soil
The plumule is the embryonic shoot of a seedling that develops into the plant's stem and leaves. Its primary function is to grow upward towards the light, facilitating photosynthesis and enabling the plant to establish itself. The plumule emerges from the seed after germination, playing a crucial role in the early development and growth of the plant.
plumule
The type of dicot seed germination you are referring to is called epigeal germination. In this process, the hypocotyl elongates and raises the plumule and cotyledons above the soil surface, allowing for better access to light and air.
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.
to protect the embryo
A plant plumule is the embryonic shoot that emerges from a seed during germination. It is the part of the seedling that will develop into the stem and leaves of the plant.
The plumule is the bud of a young plant; the portion of the plant embryo giving rise to the first true leaves. Without the plumule you'd have no leaves.
The coleoptile, which is a sheath-like structure, protects the growing tip of the plumule in monocot seeds as it emerges from the seed. It helps to shield the delicate tissues as they push through the soil during germination, ensuring the plumule develops without damage.
pollination. the flower's colors attract fauna that spreads it's pollen to other plants for germination.
