EXPERIMENT : EXPERIMENT ON EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON THE GROWTH OF GERMINATING SEEDS AND BRINE SHRIMPS. DATE : 13th OCTOBER 2009 EXPERIMENT ON EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON THE GROWTH OF GERMINATING SEEDS AND BRINE SHRIMPS. Aim: to investigate the effect of difference in temperature on the growth of germinating seeds and hatching of brine shrimps eggs. Introduction: Growth is the process by which a plant increases in the number and size of leaves and

Abstract The seeds of summer squash (Cacurbita moschata)‚ beet (Beta vulgaris)‚ and pepper (Capsicum annuum) are all dicot plants‚ which mean that they have two seed leaves inside the seed coat. When they are placed in an environment and are watered with solutions of different acidic and alkaline levels‚ the root growth during germination is affected. The purpose of this experiment was to observe what type of substance‚ acidic or basic‚ increases the growth of roots during the germination process of

due to seed storage. Almost all of the species studied stored their seeds in dense woody fruit. In order for seed dispersal to occur leading to germination and sprouting‚ the fruit must be dense woody structure of the fruit must be dried. The drying of the fruit causes cracking allowing for the seeds to disperse and germinate. The addition of occasional fires to these communities allow for the drying of the fruit quicker than in its natural state (Lamont et al‚ 1999). Since the seeds of the fruit

Abstract The Seeds of Mung bean‚ wheat‚ and silver beet were tested in environments of differing salinities to note down if high salinity environments were worse for the seeds. It was found that generally lower concentrations were better for germination then higher concentrations. Despite this‚ the hypothesis was not completely supported as in wheat and silver beet the second concentration had a higher rate of germination than the control and in all instances the highest concentration had a higher

as a profession and commercial activity. During the past‚ as most of the vegetable varieties were open pollinated‚ farmers produced the seedlings at a relatively low cost by preparing their own nursery beds. However‚ due to increase in demand for seeds of hybrid varieties which cost much more than the open pollinated varieties‚ many progressive farmers and agriculture entrepreneurs have taken –up the production of quality seedlings using seedling trays as a commercial activity. One of such enterprising

between consecutive seedlings of Nasturtium officinale influence the germination‚ and consequently the lengths of the shoots and roots of the plant. Theory: Intraspecific competition occurs when members of the same species have the same niche and therefore compete for the same resources. Competition is an interaction between organisms which live together in a habitat and compete for the limited supply of resources. The seeds of the water crest plants used in the following experiment‚ known as

Abscisic Acid. Abscitrim is highly concentrated form that that is potent and highly effective. What it does: - induces the closure in stomata to prevent transpiration and water loss - prevents fruit ripening - promotes seed dormancy by stopping cell growth and seed germination -stops synthesis of Kinetin nucleotide -Kinetin: cytokinin that promotes cell division -down regulate enzymes needed for photo synthesis -dials down growth to levels just needed for survival to prevent water

microwaves positively or adversely affect the growth of grass seeds? This experiment could shed light on the effects of radiation on living things. This information could be valuable not only to other scientist who could perform related experiments‚ but society as a whole as it could provide more information on the negative and or positive effects of radiation. While there is no clear consensus that microwaves will damage grass seeds‚ there are many studies that point towards that conclusion. First

to have found out how different chemical solutions help or harm radish plant growth when the seeds of the radish plant are soaked in said solutions prior to planting. Background: The IRP project I am doing is based off the subject of seed germination. The seeds I will be planting are cherry belle radish seeds‚ freshly bought. Instead of planting the seeds in soil like it is normally done‚ the plant seeds will be placed on paper towels to grow for better observation of the roots‚ and for a quicker
