it is a more efficient way of ensuring the specie survives.
seed (very plant expensive to produce) would mainly not find a suitable place or the right weather conditions to germinate.
the shoot (runner) on the other hand as the parent plants support till it roots and reaches adult hood.
Seedlings get their food from their "seed leaves" which is kind of a built in food for the seedling as it grows.

The life cycle of grass starts with a seed germinating into a seedling. The seedling grows into a mature plant that produces flowers and seeds. The seeds are dispersed, either by wind, animals, or water, and then germinate to start the cycle over again.
They allow the seedling room to expand without encumberance from the parent plant and spread out the range.
a young plant is called a seedling
grass! it is a plant also.
a plant starts out as a seedling
Seedling!
Wrong! Each seed equates to one grass PLANT (not one blade). If the grass is a clumping grass it will spread (upon maturity) and develop multiple shoots from the crown. One grass seedling, upon maturity, will produce a plant that is roughly 3-4" in diameter (10-16 leaves/blades)
Tree is to sapling as plant is to seedling.
The first tissue in a plant seedling is typically the cotyledon, which is a embryonic leaf-like structure that stores nutrients for the seedling until it can photosynthesize on its own.
Plants begin as seeds. The seed sprouts, forming a seedling. The seedling grows, becoming a plant. In some cases, after a plant reaches adulthood, flowers bloom.
