Is a seed an embryo?
Yes, a seed contains an embryo, which is the early stage of a plant's development. The embryo is surrounded by a protective seed coat and contains all the genetic information needed for the plant to grow.
How is seed adapted for long survival?
Seeds are adapted for long survival through mechanisms such as dormancy, which allows the seed to remain inactive until conditions are favorable for germination. They also have protective seed coats that shield them from environmental stressors like desiccation and pathogens. Additionally, some seeds contain compounds that help them resist decay and maintain viability for extended periods of time.
What are two characteristics of a seed help an embryo survive harsh conditions?
Inside a seed is a food supply for the developing plant embryo. The outside of a seed is a protective coat. This allows a seed to survive cold weather or a lack of water. A seed can remain dormant for months, or even years, while waiting for the right growing conditions.
What happens during each stage of a plant's life cycle?
During the germination stage, the seed absorbs water and begins to sprout. In the growth stage, the plant develops leaves, stems, and roots to support itself. During the flowering stage, the plant produces flowers that can be pollinated to form seeds. Finally, during the seed dispersal stage, the plant releases its seeds to grow into new plants.
How many stages are in the life cycle of a seed plant?
The life cycle of a seed plant typically consists of two main stages: the sporophyte stage (where the plant produces spores through reproductive structures like flowers or cones) and the gametophyte stage (where the plant produces gametes through the process of fertilization).
A seed that is alive but inactive is what?

When is a seed in a plant inactive?

What is a seed in a resting stage?
Dormant seed
Describe the active and inactive stages of bacteria?
The active and inactive stages of bacteria are the ones that form the life-cycle of bacteria. In the active stage, the bacteria develops and reproduces while the inactive stage spores are formed on the outer layer of the bacteria to shield them from any hostile environment.
What is a seed that is alive but inactive called?
A seed that is alive but inactive is called dormant. During dormancy, a seed is alive but not actively growing or undergoing any metabolic processes, allowing it to survive under unfavorable conditions until it can germinate when conditions are suitable.
Which stage in the life cycle of an insect is the resting stage?
The inactive stage of development is one where the insect grows but does not move. This is most common during the egg stage.
What is next stage of seed?
Plumage
How monggo seeds grow?
There are six stages of mongo seed growth. Stage one, soak the seed in water for 8 hours so that the seed swells. Stage two, the seed remove the seed and drain the water. Place in a container to germinate; tips begin to sprout. Spray the seed with water every 8-12 hours. Stage three, sprouts grow to 1-2 cm and typically takes 2-3 days. Stage four, length increases to 2-3 cm. Stage five, they will reach about 5 cm and stage six the length will reach approximately 9 cm. In the commercial industry, it is known to only grow to 5 cm.
Which seed stage is microscopic?
Ovule primordium
What type of phage enters an inactive prophage stage?
A temperate phage is a type of phage that can enter an inactive prophage stage by integrating its DNA into the host cell's genome. In this stage, the prophage replicates along with the host cell's DNA and can be passed on to daughter cells during cell division.
