Germination Lab
Purpose: What are the differences in germination of a corn seed and a lima bean seed? Background Research: The beginning of growth of a new plant from a seed is called germination. A Plant embryo is enclosed in a protective coating and has its own source of nutrients. Germination is the early stage of seed growth.
Hypothesis: If I place a corn seed and a lima
bean seed in a very moist environment, then the _______________ seed will begin to
germinate faster because ___________________________.
