The 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

BIOLOGY GERMINATION EXPERIMENT INTRODUCTION: Germination is the resumption of growth of the embryo plant inside the seed. Requirements for germination: * proper temperature * the presence of adequate water * oxygen There are two types of cotyledons: the monocotyledons (“monocots”) and the dicotyledons (“dicots”). Monocots have one cotyledon. Rice and corn are monocots. Dicots have two cotyledons. Lentils‚ lima beans‚ and green beans are dicots.* Germination in Dicots 1

of this lab is to determine the 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

This lab tests the process of germination with various pH levels. The pH level of something is its measure of acidity or how basic it is‚ solutions with a pH of less than 7 are said to be acidic‚ and solutions with a pH greater than 7 are said to be basic. The tap water that was used to water our beans had a pH of 6. In this lab‚ we studied the process of germination (the process by which a plant grows from a seed). Certain environmental factors can cause or stop a seed’s germination‚ and these factors

dependent variable was number of seeds that each solution was able to germinate. Some control variables were the amount of seeds given for each solution‚ amount of sunlight‚ and the amount of days allowed to grow. 3) The effect of pH on seed germination was an obvious pattern. The solution that had a pH closer to seven such as water (7) and coffee (7.5) germinated all five of their seeds. On the other hand‚ solutions like vinegar (3) and ammonia (11)‚ whose pH were nowhere near seven‚ grew little

speeds up the rate of germination. But the longer someone presoaks a seed‚ the greater the chance it has to rot. When presoaking seeds‚ one should avoid planting them in dry ground due to the risk of the moisture being taken out of the seeds instead of sticking with it to germinate‚ leaving the seed back to its original state. purpose - There are many factors that affect germination‚ however this lab will determine how moisture‚ specifically presoaking seeds will affect germination. To achieve the purpose

Temperature on Seed Germination The reproductive cycle of a plant is a process of constant development. It begins with gamete formation‚ and after several other steps leads into germination. During germination a mature seeds beings the formation of a seedling (Freeman 2011). However‚ before germination the seed is in a state of dormancy‚ therefore the seed must have a favorable environment to disrupt the dormancy (Freeman 2011). There are several indications for the seed to being germination. All seeds

Effect of seed germination Purpose: To see the effect of an acid introduced during seed germination‚ on the length of the plant roots. Also shows how salt can affect the seed germination. Acid can be introduced to seeds during germination if there is acid rain. Knowing the results of acid rain on seed germination will help us understand how to grow pants better‚ and how to have more successful germination. Salt can be introduced into a seed during germination because salt is put on roads and the

In this lab the rate of germination in relation to temperature was observed testing the hypothesis‚ if the seeds are exposed to cold temperatures then they will not germinate. In the standard germination test a total of one hundred corn seeds were divided into four groups of twenty-five and each group was used to make a ragdoll. The rag dolls were germinated in room temperature. In the cold test one hundred corn seeds were placed on four layers of moist paper towels in the bottom of a metal tray
