SALINE ON BEAN GERMINATION AUTHOR: Erik Motyka Lab-partner: MWCC Biology I-109 Professor: Dr. Atryzek ABSTRACT: The response of Phaseolus vulgaris to increased levels of saline solution at germination and seedling growth was investigated. Seeds were germinated in paper towels placed in plastic Ziploc bags with varying concentrations of saline solution and incubated at 25°C. At the end of 14 days the seeds were removed

rate of germination didn’t really vary between the number of paper towels throughout the experiment. Most of the seeds had germinated in the paper towels. The one outlier that was strange was the one paper towels. Only 14 of the 15 seeds germinated in that group. The difference that we could observation was the healthiness of the plants. IV. Conclusion Paragraph 1 Recap (Evidence): The purpose of our lab was to see if the amount paper towels would affect the germination of the seeds. My hypothesis

BROOKLYN BLOOMS SEED BOMB WORKSHOP What: Seedbombs‚ or seedballs are a mixture of clay‚ compost and seeds that are designed to improve ecology in blighted often hard to reach areas. The components are simply mixed together into balls that can easily be dropped or thrown in an appropriate place. How: The clay prevents the compost and seeds from being washed away in rain and keeps them damp. The seeds will sprout plants that need the compost for nutrients required for successful early growth

products that had sales in excess of $6.3 billion in 2005 (c-548). It sold genetically modified (GM) canola seeds in Canada and GM soybean seeds in the United States. The company developed a patented process in Canada that “covered the gene and process for insertion…and cells derived from that process‚” and in the United States covered the entire plant. By using this patented process‚ seeds had an increased resistance to glyphosate (many generic herbicides contained this) and would survive being

Seed Lab I. Purpose/Question: A. What is the variable you are testing? Radish seed vs. Pea seed B. Question 1: How does seed type affect when the seeds germinate? C. Question 2: How does seed type affect the length of the stem? II. Research: List two pieces of information you learned about the variable you are testing below. The radish stem was longer. Both seeds germinated equally fast. III. Hypothesis: Make these an “If-then” statement and do not use pronouns (I‚ we‚ he‚

It uses it’s strong scent ‚ woody branches‚ thick leaves ‚ and It’s waxy leaves. Gardenias life cycle.. The Germination of a gardenia takes about 21 to 60 days their seeds grow slowy and erratically when they germinate they need lots of sunlight.!

IRP 3: Germination Introduction: Germination is the process of which a plant of fungus emerges from its seed or spore. Germination involves activating the seed’s metabolism‚ which is done through numerous stages. The fist stage involves the rehydrating the cell by absorbing water. This allows the cell to become metabolically active. After water absorption‚ gibberellin is produced in the cotyledon of the seed. The enzyme gibberellin stimulates the production of amylase‚ which catalyzes the

Received: 15th February 2012 Abstract: Pollen obtained from the Hibiscus rosa-sinensis‚ commonly known as the Hibiscus flower were exposed to different concentrations of Lead to understand the effect of heavy metal on pollen tube germination. Heavy metals such as Lead‚ have shown to decrease the pollen germination and inhibit pollen tube growth. There was a correlation observed between the concentration

impact of light on the germination of seeds Research: A seed is the reproductive unit of a plant that contains a mature ovule with an embryo. The seed is made up of the seed coat hard shell over the seed‚ two cotyledons‚ fleshy membranes that store food‚ an epicotyl‚ which forms the primary shoot‚ the radicle‚ the primary root of the seed‚ and the hypocotyl‚ the stem of the epicotyl. When the seed is triggered by water to sprout‚ a process called germination begins. Germination refers to the sprouting
