Solution

The correct option is C

A refrigerator doesn't provide optimum temperature


Seed germination requires a suitable warm temperature. Both very low and very high temperatures are unsuitable for germination. The temperature inside a refrigerator varies between 4C to 8C and these are very low temperatures. Therefore the seeds kept in a refrigerator do not germinate.
