ANSWER:
The germinated grams are considered as highly nutritive because there exist more carbohydrate and protein.
EXPLANATION:
They are found highly in sprouting seeds. Once the dormant seeds are hydrated with water the water imbibition process starts which is to activate the metabolic activity.
Thus, the stored elements in endosperm is transformed in to proteins, fatty acids, vitamins and other nutrients. Thus the germinated grams contains high carbohydrate and high protein content.
