Does cowpea undergo epigeal germination?
Do sunflower undertake epigeal germination

Define and explain types of germination?
There are three types of germination 1.Hypogeal germination and epigeal germination and Cleistogeal germination. Hypogeal Germination: In this kind of Germination, the seed leaves or the cotyledons remain under the surface of soil. example: pea seeds - Epigeal Germination: In this type of Germination, the seed leaves grow above the ground on the new shoot. example: ash tree -Cleistogeal Germination: A special leaf that has a central umbrella like stalk forms above the ground which protects the shoot from any damage. So the development of the shoot can not be seen.

State the difference in how seeds react for both types of germination?
Epigeal germination is the process in which the seed leaves or the cotyledons are brought on to the surface along with the shoot during germination. Hypogeal germination is the process in which the seed leaves or the cotyledons remain below the soil surface during germination.
Do sunflowers undergo epigeal germination?
I'm no expert, but I believe yes: From: http://www.answers.com/topic/epigeal In botany, a seed is described as epigeal when the cotyledons of the germinating seed expand, throw off the seed shell and become photosynthetic above the ground. The converse, where the cotyledons remain non-photosynthetic, inside the seed shell, and below ground, is hypogeal. And http://www.answers.com/topic/cotyledon Cotyledons may be either epigeal, expanding on the germination of the seed, throwing off the seed shell and become photosynthetic above the ground; or hypogeal, not expanding, remaining below ground and not becoming photosynthetic. The latter is typically the case where the cotyledons act as a storage organ, as in many nuts and acorns. And http://www.answers.com/topic/germination
Which type of germination does sim sim undergo?
Hypogeal germination
What is the difference between epigeal and hypogeal germination?
in epigeal germination the cotyledon is pushed above the ground,the hypcotyle is long and the epicotyle is short whereas in hypogeal germination the cotyledon stays below the soil, epicotyle is long and hypocotyle is short.
