Detailed explanation-1: -The primary root, or radicle, is the first organ to appear when a seed germinates. It grows downward into the soil, anchoring the seedling.
Detailed explanation-2: -germination, the sprouting of a seed, spore, or other reproductive body, usually after a period of dormancy.
Detailed explanation-3: -The embryo inside the seed is made up of a small shoot and a small root. The root is the first to emerge from the seed. As it grows, it anchors the plant to the ground, and begins absorbing water through the root. After the root absorbs water, the shoot begins to emerge from the seed.
Detailed explanation-4: -Cotyledons are the first leaves produced by plants. Cotyledons are not considered true leaves and are sometimes referred to as “seed leaves, ” because they are actually part of the seed or embryo of the plant.
Detailed explanation-5: -The first step in the process of plant growth is seed germination. The seed germinates when favourable conditions for growth exist in the environment. In absence of such favourable conditions the seeds do not germinate and goes into a period of suspended growth or rest.
