The goat's beard, or dandelion seed, is dispersed primarily through wind. Each seed is attached to a fluffy, parachute-like structure called a pappus, which allows it to be carried away by even the slightest breeze. When the seed matures and the flower head dries, the pappus helps it float away from the parent plant, enabling it to colonize new areas. This wind dispersal mechanism increases the chances of germination in suitable environments.
