  • Seeds dispersed by water are contained in light and buoyant fruit, giving them the ability to float. Coconuts are well known for their ability to float on water to reach land where they can germinate.

  • The coconut palm tree is a widely-dispersed species due to special adaptations developed by its seed. The seed floats due to an internal air cavity. The coconut's external husk protects the internal seed from predators and the salt of the ocean.

Cocount fruits are dispersed by water.

Explanation:

Coconuts are well known for their ability to float on water to reach the land where they can germinate. The coconut seed is especially well adapted to increase its range by the method of ocean dispersal. The seed floats when its outer layers dry out. The buoyant coconuts drift on ocean currents and end up on tropical beaches where they germinate and take root.
