Answer: A buildup of potential energy, less kinetic energy
Step-by-step explanation:
The seed in the dormancy state will use little calories and limit the rate of respiration. As the cellular respiration process will require need of breakdown of nutrients and the energy will be released. To remain alive and survive for long time the seed will store the available food in the endosperm thus the potential energy will remain retained inside the seed. The seed will use less kinetic energy as this will be required for the purpose of germination.
