Yes, pea seeds undergo hypogeal germination, because their cotyledons are left underground useless for the new growing shoot.

When you plant a pea describe what happens to the seed when it germinates?

At the time of pea seed germination only plumule comes out from the soil because its mode of germination is hypogeal. The entire seed remains undergound except the plumule.


Define and explain types of germination?

There are three types of germination 1.Hypogeal germination and epigeal germination and Cleistogeal germination. Hypogeal Germination: In this kind of Germination, the seed leaves or the cotyledons remain under the surface of soil. example: pea seeds - Epigeal Germination: In this type of Germination, the seed leaves grow above the ground on the new shoot. example: ash tree -Cleistogeal Germination: A special leaf that has a central umbrella like stalk forms above the ground which protects the shoot from any damage. So the development of the shoot can not be seen.


What happens to the skin of a sweet pea so that the pea seeds cant be dispersed?

The skin of a sweet pea hardens as the pea seeds mature, making it difficult for animals to chew through and disperse the seeds. This hardened skin also helps protect the seeds from damage and allows them to be dormant until conditions are suitable for germination.


What is the conditions for seeds to germinate?

Seeds require water, oxygen, and the right temperature to germinate. Additionally, some seeds may need light or darkness to trigger germination, depending on the plant species. The presence of suitable soil conditions and the absence of inhibitors also play a role in seed germination.


What are the fastest seeds to germinate?

Pea seeds

Can you germinate soup pea seeds indoors?

Yes soup pea seeds can be germinated indoors. If we provide the required parameters for seed germination to the viable seeds.


Will germinating pea seeds carry out cellular respiration?

Yes. Pea and bean seeds may even begin germinating during the experiment. Main concepts All cells (plants and animals) perform cellular respiration to maintain homeostasis and grow.

Why do pea seeds germinate under running water but soon die under still water?

Germination dry pea seeds if they are soaked into water for few 24 hours are taken out and excess water is removed & that the seeds are kept covered with a wet cloth and wait for 2 to 3 days. The peas start germinating in this way but If the seeds are kept continuously under water the seeds will fail to respire and die. I hope that i have answered your question :-)

What can a yellow pea plant and a green pea plant produce?

Both yellow pea plants and green pea plants can produce pea pods containing seeds that can be cooked and eaten as a nutritious vegetable. The color of the seeds inside the pods will match the color of the parent plant's seeds, so yellow pea plants will produce yellow seeds while green pea plants will produce green seeds.


How can you tell if pea seeds are alive?

You can perform a simple germination test to check if pea seeds are alive. Place the seeds on a damp paper towel in a warm location. If the seeds germinate and sprout within a few days, then they are alive.
