This process is selectively inhibited by pybactin. Specimens are characterized as orthodox or recalcitrant if they can perform this process after drying and freezing steps. This process is not suppressed during vivipary. Scarification helps encourage this process, which may also be triggered by performing cold stratification to mimic normal conditions that help exit (*) dormancy. This process is called epigeal or hypogeal based on whether it occurs above or below the ground. Abscisic acid inhibits this process while opposing gibberellins. The radicle emerges in this process before the emergence of the hypocotyl, which respectively develop into roots and leaves. For 10 points, name this process in which an organism sprouts from a seed. ■END■
