Seed germination may be defined as the fundamental process by which different plant species grow from a single seed into a plant. This process influences both crop yield and quality.
When we plant seeds in the soil, they develop into sprouts when they get enough water.
Further, if these sprouts get sufficient moisture and air, they develop into seedlings.
Seedlings are baby plants or young plants developed from the seed.
Seedlings on getting enough water and nutrients grow into saplings and further into adult plants.
