Summary Introduction

When the embryonic plant which is present within seed start growing in the form of sprouting, breaks a dormancy period and forms a seedling then the seeds are said to be germinated.

We used seedlings of Lepidium sativum to see under which conditions it would germinate in an experiment. We'd use cotton wool and dampen it, and placing the seedlings at the bottom. Depending on which bottle it was, some were mixed with dampened cotton wool, and others didn't have cotton wool that were dampened. Then the opening of the bottle was covered, except for one which was covered with a lid. (See the picture). Now, I have to explain my results in my lab report. I can't find a solid source on what factors that cause the germination of seedlings. I've covered cellular respiration, and photosynthesis, but I don't know how to proceed from here. Bear also in mind that there's no soil in which the seed is germinating, so I will have to be able to explain this. Second of all, could you clue me in on how moisture is important for the germination of seedlings? Should I also bring up the physiology of seedlings and how they're growing?
Why a plant is kept near an open window?
In a flower garden, a horticulturist is growing purple and white pansies. The horticulturist notices that a new pansy has sprouted. When it finally flowers, the pansy is lavender. Explain how this happened.
