    In this lab, the seeds in the pH of seven, pure water, grew the most out of both trials, just as predicted. In trial one, the radish seeds in pure water grew gradually over the period of six days, reaching the germination of 23 of the 25 seeds. However, all of the seeds in the other Petri dishes showed no growth over this course of time. Trial two mimicked about the same data, with 21 of the 25 seeds germinating in pure water and no growth in the other Petri dishes. The water in the Petri dishes

    without using a process called seed dispersal. Seed dispersal is how a plant distributes seeds to different locations to reproduce. Plants have many different ways to disperse, depending on the type and location of the plant. A plant can use water, wind, and even animals to disperse. When a seed uses wind to disperse the seeds are usually extremely light and small. When a plant uses water to disperse the seeds are usually bigger and waterproof. For animals, the seed will have burrs or be in the flesh

    cooked. These seed are widely cultivated in warm soil at temperate location. Germination of a seed is the process Germination is the process when a plant grows from a seed. The seed stores the embryo until the conditions for germination are met. When the seed is placed in sustainable environmental conditions its embryo will grow and burst through its coating. The seed coat protects the seed before germination begins. This is important when the seed is in dormancy- the state of the seed being prevented

    test how the variation of pH values affects the germination of a genetically enhanced seed. The experiment was conducted by using three different liquids: vinegar, baking soda + vinegar, and water. Seeds were placed in petri dishes containing the liquid and the growth was measured (mm) weekly with a ruler. Trends include the large amount of growth from the H2O seeds and little to no growth from the vinegar seeds. Uncertainty stemmed from the change in weather and the ruler. Ever wonder what acid

    on the germination of radish seeds. The control group is the seeds with no irradiation. The control variable is the quantity of seeds. The dependent variable is the number of seeds that germinated, and the length of the roots. The independent variable is the amount of irradiation in the seeds. The results of this experiment will be helpful for future reference in farming, thus becoming easier, and more time-efficient. Background Research Various definitions of seed germination have been proposed

    Data Description: In both the bleach and vinegar soaked seeds, there was no growth whatsoever; therefore, there were no trends or changes in seed growth to be accounted for. The beer soaked seeds did relatively well, growing at a steadily fast pace, and grew more healthily than the other seeds (besides the control). On the graph, the beer soaked seeds seemed to follow a type of pattern. From point 1 to 2 and point 2 to 3 it inclined at the same angle. But point 3 to 4 was a larger jump, giving the

    Rate Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to discover which species out of three seeds would have the germination rate be the most negatively affected after being frozen for several days. Seed banks store frozen seeds which implied that freezing seeds doesn’t cause any major damage to the seeds. However, some species of seeds would probably be more resistant to being frozen than others. Seeds are native to and are grown in many different types of environments some of which are much warmer

    do not produce seeds. They reproduce asexually by vegetative reproduction, producing offspring that are identical to the parent plant (Miller & Levine, 2006, p. 622). Other plants produce seeds and depend on the seed’s survival to reproduce. The seed’s survival is dependent on several environmental factors, such as where the seed grows, presence of birds or other animals that eat the seeds, the temperature, moisture, and nutrient levels of the environment (Quinn, 2005). For a seed to grow and mature
