Certainly! Two causes of dormancy in seeds are:
Physical dormancy: This occurs when the seed coat is impermeable to water and gases, preventing germination until specific conditions, such as scarification (mechanical or chemical treatment), break the dormancy.
Physiological dormancy: This type of dormancy is due to internal factors within the seed that inhibit germination, such as immature embryo development or inhibitory chemicals present within the seed.
