22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
KEY CONCEPT Seeds disperse and begin to grow when conditions are favorable.

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
Animals, wind, and water can spread seeds.
• Seeds dispersed by animals can have nutritious fruits or fruits that cling.

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
• Seeds dispersed by wind can have wing- or parachute-like fruits.
Cypselae

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
• Seeds dispersed by water can have fruits that float.

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
Seeds begin to grow when environmental conditions are favorable.• Seed dormancy is a state in which the embryo has stopped
growing. – Dormancy may end
when conditions are favorable.
– While dormant, embryo can withstand extreme conditions.

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
• Germination begins the growth of an embryo into a seedling.
– water causes seed to swell and crack coat– embryonic root, radicle, is first to emerge– water activates enzymes that help send sugars to
embryo

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
• Germination begins the growth of an embryo into a seedling. – water causes seed to swell and crack coat– embryonic root, radicle, is first to emerge – water activates enzymes that help send sugars to
embryo– embryonic shoot, plumule, emerges next

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
• Germination begins the growth of an embryo into a seedling. – water causes seed to swell and crack coat– embryonic root, radicle, is first to emerge – water activates enzymes that help send sugars to
embryo– embryonic shoot, plumule, emerges next
– leaves emerge last

22.3 Seed Dispersal and Germination
• Once photosynthesis begins, the plant is called a seedling.
