Coconuts are dispersed by water which they float on, and further along the river/water it is washed onto a different river bank.
answer 2 Coconuts can certainly survive an ocean journey, and produce a plant at the chance ending. This accounts for the ocean-edge trees, but it almost certain that all inland trees are the result of deliberate planting by man. It is such a useful plant, that increasing the bounty would be a driver for all but the most unthinking.

Well, if you are talking about water disperal, it's the outer shell of coir that allows it to float. Barochory, the use of gravity also helps the dispersal. The weight of the coconut means that it hits the ground with enough energy to roll a considerable distance from the tree.
What is the purpose of the coconut seed?
The purpose of the coconut seed is to facilitate the reproduction and dispersal of the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera). The seed contains the embryonic plant and a nutrient-rich endosperm, which provides energy for the seedling's growth. Additionally, coconuts can float on water, allowing them to travel across oceans and colonize new areas, ensuring the species' survival and propagation.
