Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary advantage of seed dispersal?
Correct Answer: Seed dispersal reduces competition among seedlings.
  • Step 1: Understand what seed dispersal means. It is the process of spreading seeds away from the parent plant.
  • Step 2: Recognize that when seeds are spread out, they are not all growing in the same place.
  • Step 3: Realize that if many seeds grow close together, they compete for sunlight, water, and nutrients.
  • Step 4: Know that spreading seeds over a larger area means that each seed has a better chance to grow without too much competition.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the primary advantage of seed dispersal is that it increases the survival chances of seedlings.
