Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Imbibition is the absorption of water. It is the first step in the germination process. The seed, in its
dormant stage, contains little water. The imbibition process allows the seed to fill all its cells with
water. If other conditions are favorable, the seed then breaks its dormant stage and germinates.
