Remove the seeds as they germinate. Complete Table 1. Plot Percent Germination during Time Interval vs. days. Plot Cumulative Percent Germination vs. days. Explain each of your two graphs.
Some seeds require light for germination.
In this exercise we will test to see if your seeds have a light requirement. We will set this up in the form of a typical experiment. My seeds do not require light. If my seeds do not require light, then the germination percentage for the seeds planted in the light and dark should be the same. Record the number of seeds that you use in Table 2.
