The statement "Seeds can germinate without water" is false.
Water is a crucial factor in seed germination. Seeds need to absorb water in order to activate enzymes that break down stored starches and other nutrients, allowing the embryo to grow and eventually sprout from the seed. Without water, seeds will not be able to start the germination process.
While some seeds may have adaptations to survive periods of drought and can remain dormant until they receive adequate water, they still require water to initiate the germination process. Therefore, it is not possible for seeds to germinate without water.
