Which of the following is not correct?
(1) As the seed matures, its water content is reduced and seeds become relatively dry(10-15% moisture by mass)

(2) The seed dormancy is the internal or innate inhibition of generation of normal or viable seeds

(3) Embryo in dormant seed shows higher rate of general metabolic rate

(4) Because of dormancy seeds remain viable for longer period and can be stored
