Which seeds have hooks on them?

This is so the plants seeds can hook on to something like a humans clothes or an animals fur and get transported to another area where they can start to grow.


How is love grass dispersed?

Love grass has seeds that have hooks to hook onto the fur, feathers, and hair of passing animals. The animals disperse them until they eventually fall off to spread in a different area.


What do fruit improve the success with which seeds are dispersed?

Fruits with edible pulp attract animals that eat them and later disperse the seeds through their droppings in different locations. Fruits with hooks or barbs can attach to fur or clothing of animals and get transported to new areas. Fruits with wings or other structures may be carried by wind to different places for dispersion.


What are the five characteristics of fruit and seed that can be scattered far and wide?

Lightweight and aerodynamic: Seeds/fruits are often small and equipped with structures like wings, hairs, or parachutes to be carried by the wind. Edible and attractive to animals: Fruits have evolved to entice animals to eat them and disperse their seeds through droppings. Floatable: Some seeds/fruits can float on water, aiding in dispersal through bodies of water. Energetic ejection: Some plants have mechanisms that allow them to forcefully eject seeds over a distance. Hooked or sticky: Seeds with hooks or stickiness attach to passing animals or clothing, aiding in dispersal.


How does cocklebur disperse?

Cocklebur seeds have spines and hooks that attach themselves to animals or people who step on them, carrying them away from the original plant. This causes them to spread over a greater area than just where they are grown.These remarkable burred seeds have allowed this plant to be carried all over the world by unsuspecting travelers

What is one possible reason for seeds to have hooks or barbs?

Seeds have hooks or barbs to attach to fur, feathers, or clothing of animals, allowing for dispersal to new locations. This helps the seeds to spread away from the parent plant and increase the likelihood of successful germination and growth in different areas.


What would happened if cocklebur fruit didnt have hooks?

If cocklebur fruits didn't have hooks, they would not be able to attach to passing animals or humans for seed dispersal. This would limit their ability to spread to new areas and could impact their overall population distribution and genetic diversity.


How can fruits be helpful in seed dispersal?

Fruits aid in seed dispersal by enticing animals with their sweetness and nutrients, causing them to eat the fruit and subsequently disperse the seeds through their droppings. This process allows seeds to be spread to new areas, increasing the chance of successful germination and growth. Additionally, some fruits have adaptations like hooks or sticky surfaces that allow them to attach to animals, ensuring their distribution.

How do animals spread the seeds of a flower?

They eat the fruit and...the seeds go out through the faeces. The faeces will seep into the ground, and the seed will remain there and the faeces will be nutrients for the growing seed. <OR> They walk past the plant, the seeds hooks hooking onto the animals coat. As they walk, they drop it around and therefore the seeds will not be too close to the mother plant.
