Sofia Dominguez 10-O 19/03/14 Effect of pH on germination of seeds: Design Practical Introduction: The term pH stands for Hydrogen Potential it is used to determine the acidity of a substance. The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. The values that are smaller than 7 indicate the range of acidity. Higher pH values are alkaline and a pH of 7 is neutral. Acidity is a function of the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+)‚ or protons. The strength of alkaline solutions is measured by the concentration of hydroxide

Effect of seed germination Purpose: To see the effect of an acid introduced during seed germination‚ on the length of the plant roots. Also shows how salt can affect the seed germination. Acid can be introduced to seeds during germination if there is acid rain. Knowing the results of acid rain on seed germination will help us understand how to grow pants better‚ and how to have more successful germination. Salt can be introduced into a seed during germination because salt is put on roads and the
