  1. Seed dispersal DONE BY: Kirsten khoo Dawn Siew Benjamin Goh Andrew Tan

  2. By Splitting Suddenly - Explosive Action of Fruits Some fruits scatter their seeds by literally exploding. The pod dries, bursts open and forcibly shoots the seeds for several feet in all directions. Where the seeds fall, new plants will grow. EXPLOSIVE DISPERSAL

  3. WIND DISPERSAL Some seeds are enclosed in wing-like husks or fluffy coverings that help them drift some distance away from the parent plant.

  4. By Animals Animals often serve as seed carriers. Seeds are transported by sticking to the fur of animals or on the clothing of human beings. Birds and other animals eat the fleshy fruits and discard the seeds or they may eat both but the seeds are not digested and are passed out with their droppings, often far away from the parent plant. ANIMALDISPERSAL

  5. By Water The fruits of most water plants have buoyant, waterproof coverings that allow them to float and disperse their seeds by water WATER DISPERSAL
