What is the affect of temperature on the rate of cell respiration in peas?
this should help:Respiration slowed down when the temperature was reduced, and respiration increased when the temperature increased. The germinating pea seeds consumed the most oxygen. The vials containing the dry seeds and glass beads had the same result. When the germinating seed is cooled down however, the rate of oxygen consumption is reduced drastically because all of the cellular processes are slowed down from the cooler surroundings. The germinating seeds consumed almost no oxygen throughout the experiment in the 10-degree C water bath. In the room temperature water bath, the glass beads, and the dry pea seeds and glass beads consumed the least amount of oxygen (see chart 1). Which means that the germinating seeds would slow down their respiration rates because of the colder temperature. They consumed almost three times as much oxygen as the glass beads alone, and the glass beads and dry pea seeds.
Why do seeds grow quickly after being frozen?
Not all seeds do, but many seeds from regions with cold winters require freezing in order to break their dormancy. This helps the seeds to germinate at the appropriate time. If seeds that fell in fall germinated immediately, they would face freezing winter temperatures which could damage or kill them. Seeds that germinate after freezing are more likely to grow in spring with lots of warm weather ahead of them.
Does sprite affect the germination of radish seeds?
No, Sprite does not affect the germination of radish seeds. Germination is primarily influenced by factors such as water, light, temperature, and seed quality. Sprite, a carbonated beverage, does not have any properties that would directly impact seed germination.
What would happen to a germinating seed if the water dried up?
The seed would stop growing.
What are some disadvantages and advantages of using small potted plants as compared to seeds?
By "small potted plants" I assume you mean seedlings... The main advantage is for folks like me, who live in an area with a very short growing season: the seeds can be started indoors, much earlier than the seeds would be planted outside. Then, the seedlings can be transplanted outside, when I don't have to worry about them dying because of the cold. Also, you don't have to wonder if your seeds are germinating and there's less likelihood that the birds will eat them.
How do you compute the result of germination?
Calculate the germination rate for each kind of seed your group planted in the terrarium. For each kind of seed: 1 Record the number of seeds you planted. 2 Record the number of seeds that germinated. 3 Write a fraction that compares the number of seeds that germinated to the number of seeds that were planted. 4 Change each fraction to a fraction that has a denominator of 100. 5 Show each fraction as a percentage. For example, if you planted 50 radish seeds and 35 seeds germinated, you would write 35/50 = 70/100 = 70%. The germination rate is 70%.
How would you use a thermometer to show that germinating seeds are respiring?
respiration increases as temperature increases so you could infer that if the seeds are warmer than the surrounding evironment, then respiration is occuring.

Is germination a seed?
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.
Do big or little seeds grow faster?
WHICH SEED WOULD GROW FASTER A LITTLE SEED OR A BIG seed
Can you freeze basil seeds?
2/2/09 Unintentionally my basil seeds froze in my garden shed! Last week I thought I'd better try to see if they would germinate...I planted several and 7 have germinated so far. I too hope the rest of my winter frozen seeds made it through.

If you place seeds in microwave do they grow faster or slower?
Microwaves will essentially cook the inside (embryo and cotyledons) of the seed - killing it. The germination would be effected by the duration that the seeds were in the microwave. Microwaves do not make seed grow faster or slower, they effect the germination and vigor of the seeds - negatively.
Why are seeds stored in packets?
There are several reasons. One is that stores need containers in which they can be sold and people need packets to keep them together. It is also important that they are kept free from humidity because that could result in them germinating.
What would happen to a germinating seed if the water dried up?
The seed would stop growing.
Would you consider a germinating bean seed to be autotrophic or heterotrophic?
A germinating bean seed is an example of a heterotrophic organism. Heterotrophic entails using only organic materials as a source of food.
