Description

As we discussed in lab today you will need to turn in a proposal to me via email that includes:

*what question about seed germination or growth you would like to examine.

- think about the different variables needed for plants to grow/germinate and how you can manipulate them.

- I would do a little research on the seed(s) ( see below for options) you want to use for your experiment to make sure you can answer your question in the allotted time frame

- putting one seed in darkness and one in light is too simple of a project and will be rejected.

* Hypothesis- what results do you expect?

* Protocol- how you plan to conduct your experiment

- be as specific as possible

- remember you need to do this experiment in triplicate. For example, if you are looking at pinto beans, you need to have 3 pinto beans sprout/grow. If you are using multiple seeds to do a comparison than you will need to germinate/grow three of each seed.

*Supplies available to you:

-Petri dishes

-Parafilm- seals out air

- Pinto bean seeds

- French marigold seeds

-Sunflower seeds

Conditions Necessary for Seed Germination and Growth
Seed germination requires various conditions whose absence can lead to the failure of the
seeds to germinate. Research shows that conditions like the presence of moisture, oxygen, and
source of light are very critical for any successful germination and growth of any seed. This
proposal is aimed at putting down how effectively various experiments can be done to either
approve or disapprove the general knowledge about seed germination.

Aim of the experiments
The experiment will be set to answer the following questions
1. Is it possible for a seed to grow in the absence of moisture?
2. How will t...
