This animation was produced to answer a request from a clearly tired (judging by by his tone) student looking for diagrams of germination to complete his homework assignment. Its one of several I hope to add to the pages as time goes by. Just click on the buttons, which are self explanatory. If required a complete set of images can be printed out by advancing to the required image, clicking the right mouse button and selecting view image, then going to file menu and calling on “print preview” and finally “print”. Then again it might be simpler to just draw the images from screen! This is “remote” germination - click on “here”  for further details.
