Question

what is the role played by the hypocotyl in epigeal germination​

Answer 1

Epigeal germination implies that the cotyledons are pushed above ground. The hypocotyl elongates while the epicotyl stays the same length. In this way, the hypocotyl pushes the cotyledon upward

Answer 2

Answer:

Epigeal germination is the germination of a seed occurring above the ground level. In this type of germination, the hypocotyl develops to grow for the formation of a loop above the soil. It then clongates thereby pushing the cotyledons through the ground upwards.
