Seeds that scatter by bursting of the pod
Answers
Seed Dispersal:
In order for plants to perpetuate their species, they develop seeds; these seeds must find a place they can take root and grow. To do this, plants use a variety of mechanisms to disperse, or scatter their seeds. They can be spread by water, wind, animals, and fire.
Answer and Explanation:
Some seeds are spread when the pod in which they have developed bursts and spews them out into the air. Some plants that use this ballistic approach for seed dispersal are gorse, milkweed, and witch hazel.
Pea and beans are plants that disperse their seeds by 'bursting'.
EXPLANATION:
The plants keep the seeds in the pods and when the pods dry, they burst open to disperse their seeds.
Dispersal of seeds is essential for the continuation of species of plants. Seeds are not always dispersed and grown near the parent plant. To disperse their 'seeds', 'plants' make use of various methods. Seeds can be dispersed by expulsion from the plant or can be carried by water and animals.
