NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Water dissolves the minerals in the soil so that they become available to the seed. Because water has a neutral pH, it balances the soil pH and makes it favorable for seed germination. Imbibition of water causes the seed coat to swell and allows the cells of the embryo to rehydrate.

Detailed explanation-2: -All seeds need water, oxygen and the right temperature to germinate. Dormancy is a state of suspended animation in which seeds delay germination until conditions are right for survival and growth. Some Australian plants need fire or smoke to germinate, while others rely on insects and animals.

Detailed explanation-3: -For seeds to germinate, you need to keep the growing soil damp but not too wet. Learning how to water seedlings is pivotal for success. Many seed starters cover the container to keep soil moist until seeds germinate. Once seeds sprout, do not miss a watering.

Detailed explanation-4: -Water is necessary for the process of seed germination because it activates the enzyme system.

Detailed explanation-5: -Seeds need the proper temperature, moisture, air, and light conditions to germinate.
