Using the graph below, answer the following questions:
1. In germinating pea seeds, what type of metabolism
occurs ? What is the evidence for this answer?

2. Why does the oxygen consumption of pea seeds non
germination is very low?

3. Why would germinating seeds show a
greater oxygen consumption at 22°C than at 12°C?

4. Predict what the graph would look like for seeds non
germinative at 12°C.
