Process of seed germination
The seed absorbs water and seed coat bursts. It is the first sign of germination. There is an activation of enzymes, increase in respiration, and plant cells get duplicated. A chain of chemical changes starts which leads to the development of the plant embryo.
Chemical energy stored in the form of starch is converted to sugar, which serves as food for the embryo during the germination process. Soon, the embryo gets nourished and enlarged, and the seed coat bursts open.
The growing plant emerges out. Tip of the root first emerges, growing downwards, and helps to anchor the seed in place. It also allows the embryo to absorb minerals and water from soil.
Some seeds require special treatment of temperature, light or moisture to start germination.
Steps in seed germination can be different in dicots and monocots.
