Demonstrate the distinct types of germination -- Few biological processes are as exciting to watch as a plant breaking through the surface of the soil. Unfortunately, live specimens do not always allow for detailed study due to their size and fragility. -- This full-color model, however, lets you compare the germination of monocotyledons, dicotyledons and conifers. -- The three distinct types of germination are easily demonstrated using this eight-piece collection, which allows you to illustrate the following: a rye seed (enlarged 10x) pushing a single green shoot up from the soil, the shoots of a fir (enlarged 20x) that appear as multiple star-shaped leaves, and a bean (enlarged 5x) that first appears as a two-leaved shoot. -- Includes: key written in English, Spanish, French and German. |
