CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Germination is a complex process during which the mature seed resumes growth and shifts from a maturation-to germination-driven programme of development and subsequent seedling growth [1, 3].

Detailed explanation-2: -The correct option is B germination. The growth of a seed into a young plant or a seedling is called germination. A seed requires proper moisture, air, temperature, and light for germination.

Detailed explanation-3: -The process of seed germination includes the following five changes or steps: imbibition, respiration, effect of light on seed germination, mobilization of reserves during seed germination, and role of growth regulators and development of the embryo axis into a seedling.

Detailed explanation-4: -Germination is usually the growth of a plant contained within a seed; it results in the formation of the seedling. It is also the process of reactivation of metabolic machinery of the seed resulting in the emergence of radicle and plumule.
