What will happen if you sprinkle water on an open box of dry bean seeds?

If you sprinkle water on an open box of dry bean seeds, the seeds will start to absorb the water through a process called imbibition. This will trigger the germination process, where the seeds will begin to sprout and grow into seedlings. The water will provide the necessary hydration for the seeds to activate their enzymes and start breaking down stored nutrients for growth. It is important to continue watering the seeds regularly to support their growth into healthy plants.
