bl Give three ways in which seeds can be scattered.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

This is important because if the seeds are not dispersed, many germinating seedlings will grow very close to the parent plant. This results in competition between every one of the seedlings as well as with the parent plant. The competition is for light, space, water and nutrients.

Explanation:

There are five main modes of seed dispersal: gravity, wind, ballistic, water, and by animals.
