Answer 1

Answer:

Two beakers marked A and B, seeds of Pea,water and cotton wool. Procedure: Take two beakers which are marked A and B respectively.In beaker place some pea seeds on a wet cotton wool and in beaker B pace some pea seed on a dry cotton wool. ... Result: Water is necessary for germination.

Explanation:

Aim: To prove that oxygen is necessary for germination.

Apparatus: Two conical flask marked A and B, seeds of pea, water, cotton wool, pyrogallic acid, test tubes.

Procedure: Take two conical flask with a cork and mark them A and B respectively.Place a wet cotton wool in each flask with some soaked Pea seeds. Pyrogallic acid absorbs oxygen so a test tube of in flask B in such a way that the cemical dosent drop in the flask. In flask A hang a test tube of plain water.

Observation: The seeds in flask A germinate because of presence of oxygen and seeds in flask B do not germinate because pyrogallic acid absorbs oxygen.

Result: Oxygen is necessary for germination.
