Question

Why do seeds germinate better in warm temperatures?

Answer 1

Seed germination:

1. Seeds are ripened ovules that are formed when the embryo sac is fertilized by pollen.
2. Germination is the process by which a seed sprouts to give rise to new plants.
3. Factors that influence the seed germination process are water availability, aeration, temperature, light intensity, and viability.
4. Temperature influences the moisture content, hormone function, and enzyme activity that occurs during seed germination.
5. Warm temperatures accelerate the chemical reactions in seeds and accelerate cell formation for development.
