Can kernels from an ear of corn which you raised be planted?

If it was a standard "open pollinated" corn (an "old style" corn), yes - it will reproduce new corn plants and ears exactly like the one you planted the kernels from. If it is a newer hybrid corn (and 98% of all corns grown are hybrid corns) then no, it can't. It will create corn plants, that will grow ears, but the ears will revert to one or another of the parents mated to produce the hybrid - maybe with good results, maybe with very disappointing results.


What explanation can give for why an ear of corn isn't living?

an ear of corn does have living parts. The green husk for example. But the corn kernels themselves are composed of endosperm and seed nuclei and don't begin life until they are planted and sprout.


Is a ear of living or nonliving?

It is a living thing because the embryos of those kernels on that ear of corn, even though they have reached senescence when harvested, are still able to grow (or germinate) when planted in the soil to make new corn plants.


What would be the difference in weight between 1000 bushels of genetically enhanced corn and ordinary corn?
