Effect the Time it Takes a Radish Seed to Germinate? The independent variable was the microwaved seeds. The dependent variable was the time it takes for the seeds to germinate. Purpose: To observe the effect of electromagnetic radiation on the germination of radish seeds. Background: If you plant a seed, water it, give it sunlight, and good air a plant will grow. Did you know that there is a baby plant inside every seed called an embryo? Seeds are made up of three things, an embryo, the endosperm
corn (Zea mays) and to observe the damage it has brought in relation to the amount used for the treatment. The specific objectives were: 1. To observe the changes in the plant growth and the effect of each treatment to the plants in terms of % germination and survival rate. 2. To explain why the plants has acted such towards different doses of radiation. 3. And to describe which amount is helpful and optimum for a plant’s improved growth. MATERIALS AND METHODS In testing for the effect of
3.1 Introduction Chamomile and yarrow are both medicinal plants cultivated all over the world in an effort to determine the main active compounds from plant materials. The main factors that influence plant growth and development are temperature, light, and plant date. An extensive amount of studies have been done on the effect of controlled conditions on the growth of in vitro and in vivo chamomile and yarrow cultures (Giorgi et al., 2014; Mohammad et al., 2010). Date of planting and ages of seedling
test the significance of changes in performance induced by the transgene in the F1 progeny. Precisely, they compared the number (log10) and mass of seeds (square root), germination time, adult leaf area and number of female and male (1/square root) flowers. They repeated a MANOVA for the F2 progeny, but using only the germination time, leaf area and number of male/female flowers. For the BC progeny, the authors performed univariate GLM analyses due to its small sample size, and used the same indicators
(Gibberellic acid) results in the fastest germination time. The hypothesis being explored, states, “The seeds containing a 500ppm of Gibberellic Acid will germinate faster than one with more or less.” Gibberellic Acid, also known as Gibberellin
Plant hormones otherwise known as phytohormones are chemical substances synthesized within the cell for use in regulation, cell to cell communication, and growth and development of the plant. These hormones are usually transported to a different cell to elicit a response. However, there are some which are able to act within the cell in which they were synthesized. They are synthesized in low concentrations and they are small in size for ease of transportation through the cell wall. The location at
As a group the question we posed was, how will the color of light affect the germination of the Glycine max? We first looked into how different light colors affected seed germination. Chris Thiele (grobo.io) went through how each light color affects the growth of seeds. He listed each light color and how it affected the plants. This is what he said, no exposure to ultraviolet light produces better growth. Violet light enhances the color, taste, and aroma of plants. Ble light increases the growth
radiation rates. The seeds were planted and were observed for seven weeks. The percent germination and
pollutants affect seed germination. Because there are several kinds of solutions being tested in this experiment, there is more than one hypothesis. The hypotheses for this experiment are as follows: The use of fertilizer solution increases radish seed germination and growth. The use of salt solution decreases radish seed germination and growth. The use of soap solution decreases radish seed germination and growth. The use of vinegar solution decreases radish seed germination and growth. Distilled
