REVIEW:

WHAT IS PLANTS ?
• A plant is a living thing that grows in the earth
and has a stem, leaves, and roots.

• a living organism of the kind exemplified by trees,

shrubs, herbs, grasses, ferns, and mosses, typically
growing in a permanent site, absorbing water and
inorganic substances through its roots, and synthesizing
nutrients in its leaves by photosynthesis using the green
pigment chlorophyll.

 PARTS OF A SEED
IN ITS GERMINATION
Unlock the following words.
1. GERMINATION
- it is the process by which plants, emerge from seed and
begin growth.
2. EMBRYO
- it is a very young plant from which a new plant grow.
3. RADICLE
- it is the embryonic root in dicot seed.
4. EPICOTYL AND COTYLEDON
- it is the seeds has its own food supply.
THE TINY SEED
 SEED GERMINATION
 Is the process by which plants, emerge
from seed and begin growth.

 Is defined as the sum of events that begin

with hydration of the seed and culminate in
emergence of the embryonic axis ( usually
the radicle) from the seed coat.

 PARTS OF A SEED
1. EMBRYO
 it is a very young plant from which a new
plant grow under proper conditions.

2. RADICLE
 in a dicot it is the embryonic root.
 EPICOTYL AND COTYLEDON

• the seed has its own food supply

called the _________.

3. SEED COAT

• it develops from tissue, originally

surrounding the OVULE.

• the seed coat helps protect the

embryo.

APPLICATION

GROUP 1.
IDENTIFY THE PARTS OF THE SEED FROM THE FIGURE:

4. 1. EMBRYO
RADICLE 2. SEED COAT

3. EPICOTYL AND COTYLEDON

 GROUP 2.
Answer the following questions:

1. What is seed coat?

2. What is radicle?
3. What do you mean by seed germination?
4. What is embryo?
5. What are the parts of the seed?
VALUING

How are seeds important for plants?

 Many plants grow from seeds. Most common

vegetables that we eat are grown by planting a seed
for that plant in soil so that seeds are important.
