1. Seed Dispersal
The process of seeds spreading out from their starting place (parent plant)
Distance from the parent plant is required so plants do not compete for resources
Seeds have adapted to create different seed dispersal strategies and mechanisms

2. Seed numbers
Some plants produce thousands of seeds to increase chances of dispersal and survival

3. Wind Usually very light
Have adaptations such a sail, tuft, puffball, or parachute to catch the wind
Seeds travel until the wind stops, they catch on something, or are soaked by rain or dew

4. Usually grow in or near water and float to new locations
Light weight and usually found inside a fruit with a waxy coating

5. Some seeds stick to animals as they pass by and later fall off
Animals/Humans
Some seeds stick to animals as they pass by and later fall off
May have hooks or burrs or be sticky to attach to animals
Animals eat fruit and drop or later eliminate the seeds

6. Parent plant propels the seeds through the air
Ejection
Parent plant propels the seeds through the air
Some plants can propel their seeds up to 20 m

7. Combination
Some plants use a combination of these techniques to increase the survival chances of the seed
