because dry seeds are dormant and have a very low metabolic rate (as opposed to a germinating seed)

What do plants produce at the end of anaerobic respiration?
An end product of CO2 is formed during anaerobic respiration in germinating seeds. This can be determined by an experiment with mercury test tube and germinating seeds.
The effect of germination versus nongermination on pea seed respiration?
The germinating seeds have a higher metabolic rate and need more carbon dioxide in order to live, whereas the non germinating seeds do not need as much carbon dioxide to survive.
Why are germinating seeds?
Because to stay alive
What do plants give off that is needed by animals?
You are probably referring to carbon dioxide, which plants require to produce carbohydrates for food. However, carbon dioxide also comes from decomposes such as bacteria and fungi. Animals are also useful to plants because they pollinate them, fertilize the soil, and spread their seeds.
What gas is being taken up when using germinating seeds?
Oxygen.
Why do germinated seeds produce carbon dioxide?
Because dry seeds have a very low metabolic rate and do not produce much Co2. Germinating seeds produce more Co2.

Do seeds emit carbon dioxide?
no
Why dry gram seeds are not used in the experimment to show that carbon dioxide is released during respiration?
Dry seeds have less metabollical rate.So they do not produce significant amount of CO2.
Is carbon dioxide required by seeds?
Most seeds are not photosynthetic. So they do not need
Why are germinating seeds?
Because to stay alive
What is a box with heating element for germinating seeds?
A propagator.
What is The hormone that keeps seeds from germinating?
abscisic acid
What do seeds need for aerobic respiration?
It is eather carbon dioxide light or water.

What do seeds need to grow?
Seeds need carbon dioxide, minerals, water and sunlight to grow
