The seed swells as it absorbs water, causing it to expand and trigger germination. This process softens the seed coat and initiates biochemical changes that signal the seed to start growing. Optimal moisture levels are crucial for this process to occur effectively.

What happens to a bean seed placed in a hypotonic solution?

When a bean seed is placed in a hypotonic solution, water enters the seed through osmosis due to the lower concentration of solutes outside the seed compared to the inside. This influx of water causes the seed to swell, activating metabolic processes and potentially prompting germination. The increased turgor pressure can help break the seed coat, allowing the seed to sprout. However, if the solution is too hypotonic, it could lead to cell damage or bursting.
