Question

One can see many seeds germinating in wild during a rainy season. Choose the most appropriate reason.

• A. Rain provides sufficient water
• B. Dormancy of seeds end during the rainy season
• C. More nutrients are made available due to rains
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A Rain provides sufficient water

Water is essential for germination. Without water, the seeds remain dry and dormant and do not germinate. Rain provides the necessary water for the seeds to germinate. Therefore it is very common that in wilds, seeds germinate during rains.
