The correct Answer is:
To determine the temperature at which seed germination is not possible in most plants, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Seed Germination Seed germination is the process by which a seed develops into a new plant. This process is influenced by various environmental factors, including temperature. ### Step 2: Identify Optimum Temperature Range Research indicates that the optimum temperature range for seed germination in most plants is typically between 25°C to 35°C. This means that seeds germinate best within this temperature range. ### Step 3: Analyze the Given Temperature Options The question provides four temperature options: 1. 10 to 15°C 2. 5 to 10°C 3. 0 to 5°C 4. 20 to 25°C ### Step 4: Evaluate the Lower Temperature Limits As the temperature drops, the metabolic processes in seeds slow down. At temperatures around 0 to 5°C, most seeds will not germinate because the conditions are too cold for the necessary biochemical processes to occur. ### Step 5: Conclusion Based on the analysis, the temperature at which germination of seeds is not possible in most plants is **0 to 5°C**. ### Final Answer The correct answer is **option 3: 0 to 5°C**. ---
