41
Q

physiological dormancy

A

embryo requires environmental conditions to complete matuaration

42
Q

endodormancy

A

internal biochemical processes must be met before germination can begin

43
Q

ecodormancy

external factors are not optical for germination

44
Q

steps to initiate germination

A

initiation, enzyme activation, and breakdown of starch into sugar

45
Q

epigeous

A

the hypocotyl elongates and cotyledons extend above ground

46
Q

hypogeous

A

the epicotyl elongates and cotyledons remain belowground

47
Q

in epigeous eudicots…

A

the hypocotyl is shaped like a hook w/ the plume pointing downwards
the plume is encased by cotyledons
after emergence, the hypocotyl straightens and the epicotyl elongates

48
Q

in hypogeous eudicots…

A

the epicotyl forms a hook
the cotyledons and hypocotyl remain underground

49
Q

in epigeous monocts…

A

the single cotyledon bends into a hook and emerges before the coleoptile

50
Q

in hypogeous monocots…

A

the cotyledon remains belowground and the coleoptile emerges first

anchorage
support
absorption
nutrient storage

53
Q

tap root

A

persists throughout the plant’s life, has a vertical growing primary root
