Because dry seeds have a very low metabolic rate and do not produce much Co2. Germinating seeds produce more Co2.

Why do germinating seeds produce more carbon dioxide than dry seeds?
because dry seeds are dormant and have a very low metabolic rate (as opposed to a germinating seed)
Do seeds emit carbon dioxide?
no
Why dry gram seeds are not used in the experimment to show that carbon dioxide is released during respiration?
Dry seeds have less metabollical rate.So they do not produce significant amount of CO2.
Is carbon dioxide required by seeds?
Most seeds are not photosynthetic. So they do not need
What is the formula in getting the percentage of germination of seeds?
(# of seeds germinated/# of seeds sown)*100=% of germination
What is the formula in getting the percentage of seeds germination?
(# of seeds germinated/# of seeds sown)*100=% of germination
What do seeds need for aerobic respiration?
It is eather carbon dioxide light or water.
What do plants produce at the end of anaerobic respiration?
An end product of CO2 is formed during anaerobic respiration in germinating seeds. This can be determined by an experiment with mercury test tube and germinating seeds.
What do plants give off that is needed by animals?
You are probably referring to carbon dioxide, which plants require to produce carbohydrates for food. However, carbon dioxide also comes from decomposes such as bacteria and fungi. Animals are also useful to plants because they pollinate them, fertilize the soil, and spread their seeds.
What tropisms occur when seeds are germinated in water upside down?
Phototropism
What do seeds need to grow?
Seeds need carbon dioxide, minerals, water and sunlight to grow
How many petunia seeds do you put in a hole?
The general rule for planting seeds is to put three seeds in the hole, and then prick out the weakest ones, once they have germinated.
