Question: 321

15. GERMINATE:

  • A. Doctor
  • B. Sick
  • C. Infect
  • D. Plants

Correct Answer: E

Explanation:

Germinate means to develop or grow. It most often refers to sprouting seeds as a new plant first breaks through the seed coat. It can also refer to the development of an idea. Choice D, plants, may be an attractive choice since plants germinate. However, the word germinate does not mean plant.
