Record your observations in Table 10.4 as and when changes become visible. Table 10.4Table 10.4: Changes observed during the growth of the plant Date Observations Sketches Day 1 Seeds are sown Day 4-5 Seed begins to germinate. Small root comes out. Day 7 A tiny shoot appears above the soil Table 10.4Table 10.4: Changes observed during the growth of the plant Date Observations Sketches Day 10-12 Two small leaves appear. Seedling starts growing taller. Day 18-20 Plant grows bigger with more leaves. Day 30-40 Flower buds starts forming. Table 10.4Table 10.4: Changes observed during the growth of the plant Date Observations Sketches Day 45-60 Flower bloom on the plant. Day 70-80 Flower dries and fruit/pod begins to form.
