Viviparous germination of seeds occurs in

🌿 Vivipary
→ Many mangrove species exhibit vivipary, where the ovum is fertilized while still on the parent tree and grows with a combination of photosynthesis and nutrients from the parent.

📌 Important Points
→ In viviparous germination, seeds germinate while still attached to the parent plant.
→ The embryo continues to grow until it pierces the seed coat, while remaining attached to the parent without interruption of activity.

🔑 Key Points
Difference between Germination and Vivipary

Germination: The embryo of the seed activates and begins to grow into a new plant.
Vivipary: The seed germinates within the fruit while still attached to the parent plant.
