Tissue germination

Method:

Equipment:
  • Paper towel/cotton
  • Seed (any kind)
  • Container, plastic bag or plastic cup
  • Water
  • Gladwrap/lid

Instructions:

  1. Hydrate the seeds overnight.
  2. Get the equipment needed.
  3. soak the paper towel in water.
  4. place the seed onto the damp paper towel.
  5. fold the paper towel in half over the seed.
  6. Place the paper towel with the seed flat inside the container(plastic bag or plastic cup).
  7. label the container with your name.
  8. leave the container by a window or just in the range of sunlight.
  9. Water your plant every time you come into science

Results:

 

Conclusion:

Germinating the seed was fun but it does take a long time for the seed to grow into a plant. We placed three seeds into the cup but only one ended up growing and the other two did not grow. The bean now has a flower growing at the top of the stork.

Discussion:

The seed took about 2 days before the seed started to sprout and then the sprout started to grow larger from then. We would top up the water every time we would enter the class to make sure the plant wouldn’t run out of water and die.

What does a seed need to grow

Water and oxygen.

How does a seed germinate?

They are placed in a cup with a wet tissue which the seed absorbs and gives the seed enough nutrients to grow into a plant. The radicle is part of the seed that sprouts first and then grows into the plant.

What comes out of the seed?

The first thing that came out of my seed was the roots then the plant stem started to sprout from the seed.
