SEED PROPAGATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The purpose of seed dispersal is for the seeds to ____
A
germinate at the same time
B
move to the same place and grow
C
move further away from the parent plant
D
compete with one another for minerals in the soil
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 is an adaptive mechanism in all seed-bearing plants, participating in the movement or transport of seeds away from their parent plant to ensure the germination and survival of some of the seeds to adult plants. There are many vectors to transport the seed from one place to another.
