What are the steps of germaniation

When conditions are right the seed starts to take in water.

As water is taken in, the seed swells bigger and bigger until the coat splits apart.

Air can then get to the seed. So, the oxygen in the air helps the baby plant burn the food packed inside the seed.

Burning the food produces energy. As a result, the baby plant uses the energy to grow.

Explanation:

when you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. this increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. the intercostal muscles between your ribs also enlarge the chest cavity. they contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.
