What is the effect of height on seed dispersal?
the higher the seed is in the air,the far it can be dispersed from parent plant.
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 are the agents of germination?
There are 5 main methods of seed dispersal. They are;- Wind dispersal- Gravity dispersal- Water dispersal- Animal dispersal (including humans!)- force dispersal
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 do you call the spreading out of the seeds from the parent plant?
Different plants undergo different sorts of seed dispersal. The two forms of seed dispersal are known as autochory, or the use of simple gravity to spread the seeds, and allochory, the use of things like water, wind, or animals to spread the seeds farther.
