Animals eat plants and the seeds are not digested. The seeds then get expelled by the animals in their feces.
By various seed dispersal mechanisms
passion fruit seeds and pulp are eaten by birds, who then scatter the seeds in their excrement.
A tasty fruit will attract hungry animals looking for food. These animals will eat the fruit and scatter the seeds through their droppings, helping the plant spread its seeds to new locations.
witch hazel and many legumenous pods scatter seeds by brusting.
They eat the fruits and then later the seeds are deposited in their excreta.
Yes, when a sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is in bloom, the flowers are really in the dark middle. As the bracts (what we call petals) fade, the seeds are growing in that middle. When the seeds are ripe and you, or a bird, can eat them, the head will be drooping towards the ground where either you can collect them, or the seeds will fall to the ground for next year's display.
Seeds that scatter by bursting are known as explosive or dehiscent seeds. These seeds are contained in pods or fruits that dry out and split open suddenly when mature, releasing the seeds away from the parent plant. Examples include plants like the pea (Pisum sativum) and the touch-me-not (Impatiens), which utilize this mechanism to enhance seed dispersal and reduce competition with the parent plant. This method of dispersal can help the seeds find new habitats for germination.
