GermanationThe Essay (cue dramatic music)
A packet of bean, carrot or lettuce seeds can produce enough food for a whole family for weeks. These plants in turn produce more seeds. We have all planted seeds, but their growth is a mystery. What is germination? Germination is the process of sprouting and growing: the seed coat breaks down, the roots and leaves emerge, and photosynthesis starts.
When you look at a seed the outside you see is the seed coat. It provides protection against entry of parasites, against being broken when tossed around and to safeguard against high or low temperatures. Inside the seed coat is the embryo, an immature plant with all the parts of the adult plant. A closer look shows the leaves and the root. That is the beginning of the plant. The seed’s embryo leaves are called the cotyledons. The seed is filled with endosperm, a nutrient that will feed the embryo during its growth. The first sign of germination is the absorption of water. This activates an enzyme. Then respiration increases and plant cells are duplicated. Soon the embryo becomes too large and eventually breaks down the seed coat.
As soon as the seed has absorbed enough nutrients, the seed coat bursts and the growing plant emerges. The tip of the root is the first thing to come out. It anchors the seed in place, and allows the embryo to absorb water and nutrients from the surrounding soil. Some seeds need special conditions of light, temperature, and moisture to germinate, otherwise, the seed is dormant. Seed dormancy protects living plant material until conditions are right for it. Common vegetable garden seeds generally lack any kind of dormancy. Seeds taken from the wild are usually dormant. The nutrients fill the seed, and the roots emerge. Using the food it gets from the roots, the rest of the plant sprouts toward the sun.
As soon as the leaves are up, photosynthesis begins. Photosynthesis starts when light penetrates the thin layers of plant tissue in the leaves, like a signal. Plants can absorb light and respond biochemically. The reaction inside the plant is Carbon Dioxide + Water + Light= forms Sugar and Oxygen. This in turn fuels the plants functions and helps the roots to get more nutrients. Later on the seed makes more seeds, and the cycle continues.
Thank u for your time

I guess this is in the Spirituality section because this will be my good deed for the day…
It seems mostly fine to me…just a few small items that I would add in, but I don’t want to affect the overall body of your essay!

As it’s a middle school essay, I presume you don’t have to explain in detail what photosynthesis is, what an enzyme is, etc. etc.?!

This is pretty good. I was wondering though if it is your original thoughts, or if some is qouted from books? If there is some bits directly from books; you should either put them in qoutes or rewrite the thought in your own words. Good luck!
