B
so they can grow in a new area that may have more water
C

D
so that animals and insects can eat them
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Dispersal of seeds is very important for the survival of plant species. If plants grow too closely together, they have to compete for light, water and nutrients from the soil. Seed dispersal allows plants to spread out from a wide area and avoid competing with one another for the same resources.

Detailed explanation-2: -Seed dispersal promotes the survival of plant species. It allows plants to unfold in an extensive area. Thus, preventing plants from competing for light, water, and nutrients from the soil, which occurs when plants grow closer to each other.
