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

Influence of Acidic Solutions on Lettuce Seed Germination Introduction In the environment‚ plants are critically affected by the composition of soil‚ as they acquire all nutrients from it. A nutrient must be soluble and must remain soluble long enough in order to travel into the roots of the plant (Kissel and Miller‚ 2008). Soil PH directly affects the life and growth of a plant‚ since it affects the availability of the nutrients needed for plant life. Most nutrients are in their most available

Sofia Dominguez 10-O 19/03/14 Effect of pH on germination of seeds: Design Practical Introduction: The term pH stands for Hydrogen Potential it is used to determine the acidity of a substance. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. The values that are smaller than 7 indicate the range of acidity. Higher pH values are alkaline and a pH of 7 is neutral. Acidity is a function of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+)‚ or protons. The strength of alkaline solutions is measured by the concentration of hydroxide

THE EFFECT OF 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

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

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

Germination in plants is the process in which dormant seed begins to grow and sprout under certain growing conditions. The English pea‚ also known as the garden pea‚ is a member of the legume family and is known to grow roughly three to four inches long. Research shows that it only takes approximately 1 week for the seed to start to germinate. There are many things that can affect‚ the growth of the pea seed such as; temperature‚ moisture‚ planting depth and sunlight. The pea grows best in temperatures

(can you please help me with my biology practical report‚ its about effect of salt in seed germination) I put seed in plastic container in the dark room…please help me with systematic and random errors) I need to hand up my assignment on 31st of October-2013‚ can you please help me AS SSON AS POSSIBLE THANK YOU‚ I WILL REALLY APPRECIATE YOU IN YOU HELP ME‚ YOU WILL BE GREATFULL FOR ME ) Abstract: The problem was to determine the effect of salt water on germinating radish and sunflower seeds

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 include
