Question

Mention the factors required by a seed to germinate .

• A. Seed requires moisture in soil
• B. Adequate temperature
• C. Oxygen to respire
• D. All the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All the above

Water, temperature, oxygen, and light (only for some seeds) are the essential conditions for the germination process. The absence of one or more of these affects the sprouting of seeds. Similarly, the maturity of an embryo, seed viability, and dormancy are internal factors that affect this process.
