Question

9:55 AM KUntitled document Results After 3 days After 6 days (3 days in white light) Treatment Total Germination Newly Total Germination Germinated % of 50) (% of 50 Water in light Water in farred light Water in darkness 43 . . 86 % 2% 30% 48 T- 96% 30 40 80% 29 60% 1. Recall that a hypothesis is a proposed explanation for what has been observed. It is a generalized statement or statements that explains or attempts to explain all of the observed results. Choose the one BEST statement below that would be the most appropriate hypothesis for this experiment: a) Light-sensitive seeds do use the phytochrome pigment to determine whether or not light is present b) The wavelength of light is critical for seed germination. Light sensitive seeds use the phytochrome pigment to detect the presence of light c) Red light will cause seeds to g the seeds being in the direct sunlight and all seeds will only germinate when to a source of light. 2. What treatment resulted in the germination of the majority of the seeds both after 3 days and 6 days?

Explanation / Answer

1.(c) According to the given data,statement c explain better .Red light will give more seed germination than other because red light is like the seeds being in the direct sunlight.

2.- When red light is followed by white light , majority of the seeds will germinate after both 3 days and 6 days.
