Best Answer

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...).
