Parts of a Seed, Its Types and Dispersal

1) Gravity Plays a Role in Seed Dispersal. Explain With an Example.

• Gravity attracts all objects towards themselves.
• Fruits fall on the ground and burst open due to gravity.
• The falling of fruits on the ground brings the seeds to contact with the soil, helping grow new plants.

2) How Are the Seeds of the Neem Plant Dispersed?
