The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement and evaluate their correctness step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze Statement S-I - **Statement S-I**: "The quiescent seed germinates on the onset of favourable external conditions." - **Explanation**: A quiescent seed is in a dormant state but can germinate when the environmental conditions are suitable (such as adequate moisture, temperature, and light). This statement is correct. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement S-II - **Statement S-II**: "Dormancy of seed is due to its internal conditions of the seed." - **Explanation**: Seed dormancy can indeed be attributed to internal factors such as the presence of inhibitors, seed coat characteristics, or developmental maturity. This statement is also correct. ### Step 3: Conclusion - Both statements S-I and S-II are correct. Therefore, the correct answer is that both statements are true. ### Final Answer - The correct option is: **Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are correct.** ---
