The Journey of Seeds: From Fertilized Eggs to Mature Plants

The video explains that seeds are fertilized eggs containing all necessary materials to grow into new plants. Seeds are often found within fruits, such as strawberries and blueberries. Seed dispersal, a process aided by wind and animals, is crucial for seeds to find suitable environments for germination. Germination requires water and warm temperatures, leading to the growth of seedlings into mature plants. For plants to reach maturity, they need adequate water, air, temperature, and light.
