What conclusion can you draw after observing the results in dishes 1 and 2? Do tomatoes contain a hormone that inhibits germination? Give evidence to support your answer

Abscisic acid (ABA) inhibits germination.

Explanation:

Tomatoes contain a hormone that inhibits germination which is present in the epicarp of the tomato fruit. The hormone which prevent the tomato to germinate is called abscisic acid (ABA). If the tomato fruit produces this hormone no germination will occur but when the production of this hormone stops the germination will occur. For example, if we place a tomato in an environment, no germination will occurs due to the presence of abscisic acid.

the solute can move "downhill," from regions of higher to lower concentration, relying on the specificity of the protein carrier to pass through the membrane. this process is called passive transport or facilitated diffusion, and does not require energy.

photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make atp. the glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. while water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
