Epigeal germination
Epigeal vs. hypogeal germination
Epigeal germination (from Greek ἐπίγαιος (epígaios), meaning 'above ground'; from ἐπί (epi), meaning 'above', and γῆ (gè), meaning 'earth, ground') is a botanical term indicating that the germination of a plant takes place above the ground. An example of a plant with epigeal germination is the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). The opposite of epigeal is hypogeal (underground germination).

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.
