Question

"During germination, the fertilized egg begins to sprout and grow. Each seed contains an embryo, or tiny plant, and it needs the right condition to grow. These conditions include the basic need of water, the correct temperature, and the right location, which is in the soil."

Answer 1

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Read the following passage and identify the error. During germination, the fertilized egg begins to sprout and grow. Each seed contains an embryo, or tiny plant, and it needs the right condition to grow. These conditions include the basic need of water, the correct temperature, and the right location, which is in the soil. Select the statement that corrects the error in the passage. Seeds are fertilized during germination, not before. Basic conditions include wind, not water. The fertilized egg begins to grow and mature, not an embryo. The fertilized seed begins to grow and sprout, not an egg.

A typical seed consists of a fertilized ovule which forms the embryo. Double fertlization ensures that a structure, the endosperm, surrounds and provide nutrition to the embryo while in a state of inactivity.

During germination, the embryo sprouts and grows given the right conditions of moisture, air, temperature, and other factors that may vary from seeds to seeds.
