To allow the seeds to be carried away by the wind.
The fruit is produced as a method of reproduction, if the fruit is of use to man then that is a byproduct.
A tulip bulb can be found living a few inches below the soil is many well kept gardens, or in vast tulip fields mostly in Holland where they a farmed ready to be planted in our gardens.
The fruits of the African Tulip have adaptations for dispersal such as being light, dry, and winged, which allows them to be easily carried by wind over long distances. The seeds within the fruits are also equipped with a tuft of fine, lightweight hairs that aid in wind dispersal. Additionally, the fruits contain multiple seeds, increasing the chances of successful dispersal and colonization in new areas.
One of the characteristic of the seeds or fruits that is dispersed by the splitting of fruits is the formation in a pod.
By wind
By water
Wind dispersal
no it is not reproduce by leave
It is dispersed by explosive action.
yes
it is a bulb and could be eaten if hungry enough.
It is dispersed through splitting. However, the seeds can go further than other splitting plants as it has wing-like structure which allow itself to be carried away by the wind. =)
