What else can I help you with?
Would you consider a germinating bean seed to be autotrophic or heterotrophic?
A germinating bean seed would be considered heterotrophic because it relies on stored energy reserves in the seed for growth until it can produce its own food through photosynthesis. Once the seedling develops leaves and starts photosynthesizing, it becomes autotrophic.
What plant store food in their seeds?
All seed plants store food within the seed; this takes the form of the cotyledons which are there to provide nutrition to the embryo while it is dormant and then while the seed is germinating and before it is able to produce its own food
Why water important in plants?
Making of food by photosynthesis and in germinating seed
At what temperature will bacteria lay dormant on food in a freezer?
Food poisoning bacteria go dormant at and below freezing. All bacteria are dormant below -17ºC or 1.5ºF
Why do germinating seeds produce more carbon dioxide than dry seeds?
Germinating seeds produce more carbon dioxide because the process of germination involves the breakdown of stored food reserves in the seed through respiration. This metabolic activity requires oxygen and generates carbon dioxide as a byproduct. Dry seeds do not undergo active metabolic processes, so they do not produce as much carbon dioxide.
Where does a germinating dicotyledon seed obtain food for its growth?
A germinating dicotyledon seed obtains food for its growth from the endosperm, a nutrient-rich tissue within the seed that provides energy and nutrients for the developing seedling until it can photosynthesize on its own.
What is needed in making food of plants but not by germinating seeds?
I think water, air, sunlight, soil ! :P
Is starch present in red beans?
Starch is present in all beans as starch is food for the germinating plant.
What is the function of the cotyledons?
it stores food for the young plant and also protect itAnswer:It's a principle part of the embryo in the seed of a plant. Seeds with two are called dicotyledons, seeds with only one are called monocotyledons.
How does a tree make food when its leaves are fallen down?
When a tree is bare of leaves it is dormant and is not making food.
Why can't a germinating seed make its own food?
Mainly because there is no sunlight available in the ground and the seed has no chlorophyll to use the sunlight.
What is the function of the seed coat and the cotyledon?
The cotyledons provides a source of food to the seed and seedling that is germinating, while the seed coat protects it.
