INTRODUCTION A seed is a fertilized ovule that contains an embryo and transforms it into a new plant through the process of germination. Seeds remain inactive until conditions are right for germination. All seeds need water‚ oxygen‚ and proper temperature in order to germinate. However‚ some seeds require full light or darkness to germinate. According to Holm (1996) seeds have chemical inhibitors that prevent germination. A seed will not grow unless those inhibitors are destroyed by things like

The Radish seeds were planted in a pot‚ which contained soil from the garden and cow manure. The Radish was placed in an area similar to the black bean plant and watered daily. According to Yates Expert (n.d.‚ para. 3) radish plants like moist soil and by watering the plant in the evening this helped stop the soil from being dried out from the summer weather. By day eight the radish plant had germinated with more than one seed breaking through the soil. However‚ regular observations showed that

Purpose: In this experiment‚ the purpose was 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

Results The above results show the data collected after a week of measuring the biggest plant per bag. Each day the biggest radish plant in site A was measured and by day five the largest plant was 5 centimeters long‚ and had developed small green leaves. By the 5th day site B and D’s seeds showed no signs of growing and length remained at 0 centimeters. Site C and D’s superior seed both grew a total of 3 centimeters according to the 5th day measurements. Both the graph and table display the same

Bioassay of Radish Seeds Bioassay is a type of scientific experiment used in the development of new drugs and monitoring pollutants. It estimates the potency of a substance‚ by testing its effect on living matter. In other words‚ it determines how much of the substance is needed to poison an individual‚ without testing it on any humans or animals. From here the TC50 of the substance can be adjusted for dealing with humans and animals over plants. In this lab we attempted to find the potency of

It was evident since the start of the lap that the big question was‚ how does temperature affect radish germination. The original hypothesis was if temperature affects the tail length of the germinated seed‚ then a higher temperature will lead to a significant decrease in the tail length of the germinated seed. This hypothesis is true‚ according to the collected data. After 6 days of letting the seeds germinate‚ the ones that germinated in room temperature were quicker to germinate and with a lot

Radish Seed Lab Report Problem: What caffeinated drink (monster‚ coffee‚ or green tea) will the radish seeds grow in the best form over a nine day period? Hypothesis: If the radish seeds put in the dish with the drink Monster‚ then the seeds will grow faster because of the amount of energy given to them. The amount of caffeine in Coffee is much greater than the amount in green tea and Monster‚ but neither coffee nor green tea contains any extra type of an energy booster like the Monster does.

require more oxygen because more energy is needed to sustain the seed’s homeostasis. For this experiment 4 groups was set up with 0.5 mL worth of the following seeds: peas (1) ‚ black beans (1)‚ radish seeds‚ and glass beads (control). The black bean served as the biggest size‚ peas were medium‚ and radish seeds were the smallest. After setting up the microrespirometer and placing each tested object inside the barrel‚ it was placed in a water bath at 19 degrees celsius and food color was placed in

Introduction This experiment is designed to test the allelopathy of two different treatments‚ Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus cinerea) and Lemon (Citrus limon). The two treatments will be tested on radish seeds (Raphanus sativus) to investigate the effect of the treatments on the germination of the radish seeds. Allelopathy is the beneficial or harmful effects that one plant has on another plant by the release of chemicals. Allelopathy studies the interactions among plants‚ fungi‚ algae and bacteria
