Seeds are adapted for germination by having a protective seed coat that helps regulate water absorption and prevent damage. They also contain stored nutrients to provide energy for the developing seedling until it can photosynthesize on its own. Additionally, seeds have dormant embryos that are activated by specific environmental cues like moisture, temperature, or light to trigger germination.
What else can I help you with?
What is the name for the growth of a plant embryo from a seed?
Germination.
How does is protect the seed?
A seed is protected by its outer seed coat, which acts as a barrier to physical damage, pests, and germination inhibitors. The seed's dormancy mechanisms also help protect it by ensuring it remains quiescent until conditions are optimal for germination. Additionally, some seeds have evolved adaptations, such as hard endosperm or chemical defenses, to further protect themselves.
What is it called when a seed begins to grow?
Well, there's seed development when the inflorescences of the seed head stop flowering and everything goes into seed production, and then there is germination, where a plant grows from a seed that was planted in the soil.
Where does seed germination take place?
Seed germination typically takes place in the soil. The seed absorbs water from the soil, which triggers the germination process by initiating metabolic functions that allow the seedling to sprout and grow.
Which part of the seed develops into a seedling at the time of germination?
The cotyledon of the seed develops into a seedling at the time of germination.

What is the name for the growth of a plant embryo from a seed?
Germination.
What happens to a seed after germination?
The contents of a seed are used up after germination by the seedling growing from it.

Does the storing of a seed before germination effect the germination of the seed?
Yes because of Lauren Hallas.
Where does seed germination take place?
Seed germination typically takes place in the soil. The seed absorbs water from the soil, which triggers the germination process by initiating metabolic functions that allow the seedling to sprout and grow.
What causes seed germination to begin?
germination begins when seed tissues absorb water.
Which part of the seed develops into a seedling at the time of germination?
The cotyledon of the seed develops into a seedling at the time of germination.
Why does high concentrated sugar inhibit seed germination?
when the water used in germination is sugary, it does not enter the seed
What word means a seed has begun to grow?
Germination - the process of growing a new plant from a seed.
When does germination begin in a seed?
Germination in a seed typically begins when the seed is planted in soil and provided with the right conditions such as water, warmth, and oxygen.
