What is purpose of the fruit that develops on a flowering plant?
The fruit is is the seed bearing structure and in some plants the fruit is used to help seed dispersal.
What is an enlarged ovary of a plant that aids in seed dispersal?
The swollen ovary in plants is called the fruit.
How can you tell what is a fruit and what is a vegetable?
A fruit is the term given to the fleshy part of a plant produced by the plant as part of its seed protection/dispersal strategy.A vegetable is the term given to an edible part of a plant that is not a fruit.
How is the fruit of saga dispersed?
Seed dispersal is the movement or transport of seeds away from the parent plant. Seeds can be dispersed away from the parent plant individually or collectively, as well as dispersed in both space and time. The patterns of seed dispersal are determined in large part by the dispersal mechanism and this has important implications for the demographic and genetic structure of plant populations, as well as migration patterns and species interactions. There are five main modes of seed dispersal: gravity, wind, ballistic, water and by animals.
What structure of a plant produces the fruit?
The structure the fruit is made from is the blossom
What fruit eating animal likely would ensure the widest dispersal of a plant's seeds?

What is mechanical dispusal of a plant?
When the Ripened Fruit Bursts Open and Scatters the Seeds Some Distance from the Plant.
What are the 5 agents of seed dispersal?
air dispersal wind dispersal flying dispersal animal dispersal fur dispersal
What plant has seed pods that get caught in animal fur and on human clothing?
parts of a fruit that attach to an animal's fur for dispersal
How does seed dispersal happen?
There are five methods of seed dispersal.The first one is human dispersal, when human beings harvest the plant, take the seed out from the fruit, and plant it in another plot of land (like tomatoes, cucumbers, etc...). Water dispersal is when the fruit falls in the water and is light enough to float for at least a few seconds (like coconuts, water lilies, etc...). Animal dispersal is when an animal gets the fruit stuck in its hair or fur and scratches it off after a few minutes or eats the fruit and the seed emerges from its droppings (like burrs, mistletoe, etc...). Wind dispersal happens when the fruit is light enough to glide with the wind for at least a few seconds (like schizocarps, samaras, etc...), and mechanical dispersal is when the seed(s) are dispersed in a way like a slingshot (like peas, forget-me-nots, etc...).
What is a fruit and its structure and functions?
A fruit is the part of a flowering plant that contains and protects the seeds.
Why dispersal is important?
for plant
