Description: Uses time-lapse photography to study the germination of rice seeds, examining the stored food energy, nutritional requirements, and the process of transpiration. Performs the iodine test to show that starch stored in the rice seed is changed as roots are produced. Examines other seeds to find stored proteins or fats and observes experiments which indicate the need for water and minerals by seedlings., An examination of rice, wheat and castor oil seeds demonstrate how every seed has energy which is stored as starch, protein or fat. Nutritional requirements of growing plants. Process of transpiration illustrated with time-lapse photography.
