Sea water does not kill the round seed inside the air-filled, fibrous husk. Coconut seeds are able to immediately germinate, they require no dormancy or treatment to cold or cracking to sprout. Wherever the coconut rests, the milky water inside the seed provides ample moisture to sustain the seedling as it sprouts, even in seasonally dry beach sands.

the coconut palm has no problem tolerating oppressive humidity and summer heat. The flexible trunk coupled with the flexible, large fronds with slender leaflets make it extremely wind-resistant.

The trunk is sturdy but flexible, supported by many long roots that will keep a coconut palm alive after tipping over or leaning.

The coconut grows in coastal areas. Its fruit has a fibrous layer which helps it to float on water and get dispersed to far off places. The fruit is well protected by the hard covering.

Coconut trees adapt to the rainforest by growing tall to get taller than the canopy. A canopy is a bunch of trees that block rain and sunlight from plants on the floor. The coconut tree grows higher than the canopy so it can get rain and sunlight. That is how coconut trees adapt to the rainforest

The coconut tree has developed a seed that is light and porous enough to float on water. This means it is easier for the tree to reproduce since its fruit gets sent to far away places. The seed is also the fruit.
