Question

The germinating seeds give off heat during the process of
a) Germination
b) Respiration
c) Diffusion
d) None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

The germinating seeds can respire by using the water. When there is an increase in the respiration process, the breakdown of the glucose molecule occurs which results in the evolution of energy in the form of heat. ... This proves heat is evolved during the process of germination.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The germinating seeds give off heat during the process of (b) Respiration

Explanation:

• Cellular respiration fulfills the energy for germination from dormancy while the carbon dioxide which is expelled in respiration is absorbed by calcium hydroxide.
• Cellular respiration is to break down glucose using oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water, and energy in the form of heat.
• However, respiration takes the energy from food and releases the energy in the form of heat which is an exothermic process.
• Even the heat treatment for seed increases the speed of germination.
