The volume of dry seed increased by imbibitions is _ times.
Correct answer: B. 200 times
- A. 100 times
- B. 200 times
- C. 300 times
- D. 150 times
Explanation
The correct answer is "200 times." During the process of imbibition, seeds absorb a significant amount of water, causing their volume to increase substantially, typically around 200 times. This expansion is essential for breaking the seed coat, allowing germination to proceed. Option A (100 times) and Option D (150 times) underestimate the typical increase, while Option C (300 times) overestimates the increase.
