Plant Reproduction
Germination
The process by which a seed grows into a young plant, or a seedling, is called Germination
A seed germinates only when it gets enough light,air,water and warmth.
During the early stages of germination, the seedling uses the food stored inside the seeds for its growth
When the seed receives adequate amount of light, water, air and warmth, it becomes soft and spongy.

This young plant is called seedling. The seedling absorbs water and nutrients from the soil with the help of the roots
As the plant grows in size, it develops more leaves. The seed then shrinks and disappears
All seeds do not grow into new plants because some are eaten by animals, some get destroyed by rain or wing, while some get insufficient air, water or warmth
