Answer: Water inside the seed coat creating a pushing force, breaking the seed coat.

Explanation:

Seed germination can be defined as the process by which a new plant emerge out from a seed. The radicle is the first emerging part from a seed and it develops into a root and the plumule is the second emerging part and it develops into a shoot. The light, water, adequate temperature, and soil are the factors that are necessary for seed germination.

According to a given situation, the popcorn kernel will receive the moisture necessary for the germination process, the water will imbibe into the seed coat creating pressure inside the seed and which will cause the seed coat to break and the new plant parts or seedling will emerge out of the seed coat.

Propiedades químicas del óxido​
tangare [24]

Óxidos básicos: Son formados por metales. El metal presente en su fórmula puede presentar carga eléctrica +1 y +2, o sea, poseer carácter iónico. Ejemplos: Na2O (óxido de sodio), BaO (óxido de bario).

Óxidos neutros: Son compuestos por no metales. No reaccionan con agua, ácido o base, en razón del enlace covalente que une sus componentes; de ahí el por qué de ser llamados óxidos inertes. Ejemplos: monóxido de dinitrógeno (N2O) y monóxido de carbono (CO).

Óxidos ácidos: También conocidos como anhídridos de ácidos, son formados por no metales y presentan carácter covalente. En la presencia de agua, producen ácidos y en la presencia de bases, origina sal y agua. Ejemplo: CO2 (dióxido de carbono o gas carbono) y el SO2 (dióxido de azufre)

Óxidos dobles o mixtos: La combinación de dos óxidos de un mismo elemento, da origen a este tipo de óxidos. Ejemplo: magnetita (Fe2O4), unión de los óxidos de hierro (Fe) y oxígeno (O).

Óxidos anfóteros: Presentan ambigüedad, en la presencia de un ácido se comportan como óxidos básicos y en la presencia de una base, como óxidos ácidos. Ejemplos: óxido de aluminio (Al2O3 ) y el óxido de zinc (ZnO).

Peróxidos: Compuestos que poseen en su fórmula el grupo (O2)2- . Los peróxidos más comunes son formados por hidrógeno, metales alcalinos y metales alcalinos térreos. Ejemplos: agua oxigenada (H2O) y peróxido de sodio (Na2O2).
