Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: 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 dispersion or seed dispersal is the movement or transport of seeds away from the parent plant. This is to avoid the competition between parent plant and their siblings for light, space, water and nutrients.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plants make seeds that can grow into new plants, but if the seeds just fall to the ground under the parent plant, they might not get enough sun, water or nutrients from the soil. Because plants cannot walk around and take their seeds to other places, they have developed other methods to disperse (move) their seeds.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer: Plants scatter their seeds in order to insure that they don’t grow too close to each other.
