Fly Away Seeds by Yenenesh

In class right now we are learning about plants, plant adaptations, and seed dispersal.  Did you know that there are four methods of seed dispersal in flowering plants?  If you didn't, those four methods are animals, wind, water, and force.  After the plant reproduction cycle is over the seed is ready to depart from its parents. Every seed goes away from its parents differently depending on the kind of of plant.


As that seed develops the small ovary inside turns into a fruit. A fruit is a way to spread the seeds. The seeds are inside the fruit and when the fruit gets eaten the seeds are transferred somewhere else. For example pumpkin seeds you eat, digest, then excrete. The reason I chose this to blog about was the seed dispersal. I really find it interesting that there are many ways for seeds to scatter away for its parents.
