SUMMARY
Germination is the start of growth of a plant from a seed. It’s that first stage where the seed sprouts to become a seedling.

Inside a seed is a plumule which will go on to become the first plant shoot and a radicle which will form the first root. Seeds also have cotyledons which act as a food store for the new plant until it’s able to carry out photosynthesis. They also have a seed coat which forms a protective layer.

For germination to happen, seeds require water, oxygen and a warm temperature.

I love how you use real plants to show what your explaining! This is very helpful thank you.

A quick tip if you want to remember it easily just think of WOW: Water, Oxygen, and warmth

This is really well made, you have a good audio setup, and your visuals aren't laggy or too visually busy, I have attention issues & this is good for both watching and listening to, great job with the video man! You also have a good speaking voice and a cool accent it's cool that I we get to learn science from all around the world and from my little slice of earth I just wanted to show you some appreciation for taking the time to make and share this content!

Thank You so much for understanding me the structure of seed and also germination

[PetrocellTarkwa-opfr]

You make study enjoyable, Sir. GRATEFUL.

I searched so many videos but couldn't understand what a cotyledon is ..now I do..thank u

[ScoreStars_IGCSE]

water activates enzymes in cotyledons during the germination process of seeds - can you please add this point too. Your video is SIMPLY AMAZING !

Plzz make more related videos on seeds prepared for sowing

[RobloxAngelina]

Thank you so much for teaching us, this was coming for my exams

[soethukhaing]

Thank you very much for this video. That is a great help for me. I was so confued after learning some other videos which included the facts that are not the same what I've learnt but your video made my doubt clear. I really appreciate.💓

This is helping me a.ot with my studies, but i made a mistake it is not worm temperature but "suitable temperature* . Not all seeds need worm temperature, for some plant grow in exreamly cold environments, the temperature has to be suitable meaning the temperature must be what that type of seed is used to, yes different temperatures can work for example with plants that grow in cold environments they can germinate in worm temperature, after they have adapt to the new environment, which whout cause pause in the germination process, resulting in a slower growth. Also not all seeds can adapt new environmental temperatures.

I know in the video you said that not all of them are correct but i just wanted to make a statment to better help other or even yourself. Well thank you again this video help my very much and is deffinetly making my grade 9 agriculture class easier.
