Jonathan sows some pea seeds in one pot. within few days the seeds germinate and a radicle forms. which gives rise to roots. how does a radicle give rise to the roots and why

In the field of botany, the radicle refers to the initial component of a seedling, (a developing plant embryo) to originate from the seed at the time of the germination process. The radicle is the embryonic root of the plant and develops downward in the soil.

It is the initial thing to arise from a seed and down into the ground to permit the seed to take up water and conduct it to its leaves so that the process of photosynthesis can start. The radicle originates from a seed via the micropyle.

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
