Seeds no matter what size are packages of genetic material and energy that are living in the same way the plant that they came from is/was living. the seeds continue to be living until they start growing. Some plant seeds from some plants and trees can remain viable for 100's of years. That is they can fall from the tree and remain in the soil for a hundred years until the conditions are correct for it to start growing. the correct conditions act like a trigger and then bam, the energy in the seed is released as roots and leaves and then it start absorbing energy from its surroundings. So the answer is seeds get there energy from the parent plant. seeds are a package of genetic material and certain nutrients necesary for the roots and leaves to grow. moisture is often the trigger. Google it!
When a seed begins to grow/sprout it is known as germination.
During seed germination embryo in a seed grows. As a result a small seedling comes out of the seed.
Yes, seeds require oxygen to germinate and grow. Oxygen is necessary for the process of respiration, which provides energy for the seed to break dormancy and start growing. Without sufficient oxygen, the seed may not be able to germinate.
Some species do and some species don't. All species need their seeds to be in their own type of environment to germinate.
* Absolutely! Sunlight is essential for plants to grow. there is a big difference between what a plant needs to grow and what a seed needs to germinate. most seeds require darkness to germinate, some are light inhibited and a few require light to germinate- most notable of these is lettuce.

in late spring,sunflower seed will germinate
Santol seeds usually contain two cotyledons when they germinate. These cotyledons are the seed leaves that provide nutrients to the emerging seedling until it can produce its own energy through photosynthesis.
You should seed, wait for the seed to germinate, and then apply your fertiliser. Some fertilisers also contain weed killer which will prevent grass seed germinating.
A mango seed will not germinate if it is coated with pomade. This will prevent the seed from germinating and growing.
you need one cup of water to germinate a seed
Seeds do not need sunlight to germinate because they already contain all the nutrients and energy they need to start growing. The process of germination typically begins when a seed absorbs water, which activates enzymes within the seed that kickstart growth. Sunlight becomes necessary only once the seed has sprouted and the seedling starts photosynthesizing to produce its own energy.

endosperm provides the seed with the energy to grow as it is the seeds source of food.
No, because sunlight can not reach a seed when it is in the soil, but plants still germinate.
Water triggers the enzymatic activities in the seed. Therefore, in the absence of water seed will not germinate for want of enzymatic activities.
