Model showing germination
A collection for comparing the germination of rye (10 times enlarged), bean (5 times enlarged), and fir (20 times enlarged). In SOMSO-Plast®. After Prof. Dr. W. Jung and Prof. Dr. W. Weber. The model clearly demonstrates that: 1. the rye (Secale cereale) seed pushes up from the soil a green shoot (single shoot - monocotyle plant), 2. the bean (Phaesolus vulgaris) first appears as a two leaved shoot (leaved shoot - dicotyle plant) and 3. the shoots of the fir (Picea excelsa) appear from the earth first throwing out their star-shaped leaves. Model separates into 8 parts. On a green base with key.
