Why do you think are the reasons why only few seeds germinate​

Biology

Sladkaya [172]2 years ago

Answer:

The germination of a seed can eventually be affected by temperature, humidity and oxygen. Generally, the seeds remain viable longer at low temperatures, a humidity range of 3% to 20% and an environment with low partial pressure of oxygen. If some of these factors are not met, the seed can age or eventually germinate.

Explanation:

Seeds are the main reproductive organ of the vast majority of higher terrestrial and aquatic plants. They play a key role in the renewal, persistence and dispersal of plant populations, the regeneration of forests and ecological succession. In nature the seed is a staple food source for many animals. Seed germination often takes place on the surface of the soil, so the balance between the gain of soil moisture and its loss by transpiration to the atmosphere determines when the seed becomes saturated with moisture and begins to germinate.

The first reason is that Thats because the seeds will remain dormant until they have the resources they need for eg: some seeds are frozen in winter so that they wont germinate until they have enough resources in spring .

Regarding horizontal gene transfer between bacteria by conjugation, transduction, or transformation:
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Distinct mechanisms are used by bacteria in order to transfer the gene from one bacteria to another. These are transformation, transduction, and conjugation. Transformation refers to the process of uptaking extracellular DNA by the recipient of the other bacterial cell.  

In the process of transduction, the donor DNA gets packed within the bacteriophage and infects the recipient bacteria. In the process of conjugation, the genetic substance is transferred by the donor bacteria to the recipient via the process of mating.  

a. Of all these three mechanisms, transformation is the process that exhibits a broad range and can be easily performed in the lab. As in the process, there is a slight chance of rejection or failure due to direct compatibility between the bacteria.  

b. While the narrowest broad range is found in the process of conjugation, as in order to transfer the genetic substance between the two bacterial species, there should be a similarity between the two species so that they can mate and exchange the genetic substance in between them.

What evidence is there that the endangered species act is causing harm to species????
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

There is strong and increasing evidence the Endangered Species Act is causing widespread harm to the species it is supposed to protect-to the extent the Act may be doing more harm than good. The Act makes otherwise normal and legal forms of land and resource use illegal, such as farming, home building and cutting timber. The Endangered Species Act’s severe penalties-$100,000 and/or 1 year in jail for harming a single species or even unoccupied habitat that is deemed suitable-turn species in to liabilities. As a result, landowners seek to reduce their liabilities in a number of ways.
