Wind. The seeds are very light, and have a fluffy end that catches even a light breeze, and are blown for some distance,
The seed is very small and light, and it is attached to a cotton like fruit that can be caught by the wind and carried a long distance from the parent plant. By this method, a dandelion can spread its offspring very rapidly to far and wide places.

How does the structure of the dandelion fruit and seed helps a dandelion spread its seeds? The Light weight structure of the fruit causes wind to move it easily, there fore helping its seed spread.

Dandelions are a flower often considered a weed. They create food from the light, water and nutrients in the soil.
A Dandelion uses Wind to spread the seeds. When the dandelion turns white and fluffy, wind can pick up the seeds, since they are attached to the fluff. Next time you see a fluffy white dandelion, pull off some of the fluff and take a look. You will see tiny seeds attached at the bottom!
Dandelions appear yellow in white light because they reflect predominantly yellow wavelengths of light and absorb other colors. The pigments in the flower, such as carotenoids and flavonoids, give it its yellow color. These pigments absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect yellow light, making the dandelion appear yellow to our eyes.
