Best Answer

Seeds may be spread by:-

Wind (eg dandelion sugar steelers)

Animals (eg burs that stick to your clothing or seeds that pass through the gut)

Water (eg coconuts)

Mechanics (eg the squirting cucumber)
When birds eat seeds they leave theim in their droppings. This benefits the seed which has a good source of fertiliser to start it's growth with.

This is the reason why most seed bearing plants have edible fruit.is it true
