THE EFFECT OF SALINE ON BEAN GERMINATION AUTHOR: Erik Motyka Lab-partner: MWCC Biology I-109 Professor: Dr. Atryzek ABSTRACT: The response of Phaseolus vulgaris to increased levels of saline solution at germination and seedling growth was investigated. Seeds were germinated in paper towels placed in plastic Ziploc bags with varying concentrations of saline solution and incubated at 25°C. At the end of 14 days the seeds

about bean germination: * The time to germination will decrease if you soak the beans overnight * It may take 7-10 days for the beans to ‘sprout’ * Make sure the paper towels remain moist for the duration of your experiment | | | | | | | | | | Procedure 1. Think of 10-20 variables that may affect seed germination‚ recording them in Table 3. 2. From your list of variables in Table 3‚ select three to test. Form a hypothesis for why each affects seed germination.

Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and Pea (Pisum Sativum) Temperature Germination Experiment Abstract: This experiment had the purpose of testing temperature for bean and pea seed germination. 100 beans were taken and split into four groups of 25. Each Group of 25 beans was folded inside a damp paper towel. Two of the damp paper towels‚ with the beans inside‚ were put in a plastic bag and then moved to a warm place and the other two paper towels were put in a plastic bag and then moved to a cold room

Germination is the process by which a plant grows from a seed. The most common example of germination is the sprouting of a seedling from a seed of an angiosperm or gymnosperm. However the growth of a sporeling from a spore‚ for example the growth of hyphae from fungal spores‚ is also germination. In a more general sense‚ germination can be simply anything expanding into greater being from a small existence or germ‚ a method that is commonly used by many seed germination projects.

Robert Lawrence and Edmund Stephens‚ two graduate students of geology from Columbia University‚ organized the Saline Salt Company in 1974. Keeping in mind the fact that every 1‚000 grams of seawater contains approximately 35 grams of various salts‚ the two men pictured limitless wealth for them by extracting these salts. Common table salt comprises 27 grams out of each 35 grams and is easy to extract; so‚ the men decided to begin producing it. They picked New Iberia‚ Louisiana as the ideal location

inner tegmen and outer testa. On the seed coat a scar (hilum) is present which shows the place of attachment of a seed in the fruit is present. At one end of the hilum is the micropyle. Through micropyle the seed absorbs water during the process of germination. The embryo consists of epicotyl‚one or two seed leaves called cotyledons‚ and a hypocotyle. The portion of the embryo above the point of attachment of cotyledons to embryo axis‚ and below the plumule is called epicotyl. The plumule forms shoot

The Effects of a Seed Coat in Seed Germination Mario Monroe INT1 Task 3 The Effects of a Seed Coat in Seed Germination Abstract Seed germination is an important aspect in plants growth and food production. It is therefore it’s of uttermost importance to know the effective ways of seed germination so as to improve food production. This research was therefore prompted by the rising issue of farmers buying low quality and a damaged maize seed from unscrupulous sellers and this has led to deterioration

The Effects of Temperature on Basil Germination Abstract: Successful germination depends on many different factors. The amount of moisture‚ the type of seed‚ the temperature of the room‚ and how long the seeds are left in the specific environment‚ these factors are the most common. This paper focuses on the temperature of the seeds‚ specifically basil seeds. Basil seeds were placed on a damp towel‚ in two seperate Petri dish‚ and one was put in a room‚ to adjust to the temperature‚ and the

Seed Germination Some people‚ when they think of germination‚ think of a seed sprouting. Very plain‚ simple image in their mind‚ especially since there is so much more going on in the small seed. New Life is growing. Germination is the sprouting of a seed‚ through which a lot of plants reproduce‚ though not all. Water is a major trigger in the germination stage‚ playing a major role also later in the plant’s life. Though seeds are not the only way for plants to reproduce‚ it is one of the easiest
