how does seed dispersal increase the odds of reproduction

SouravSeptember 2, 2024

Answer

Seed dispersal increases the odds of reproduction by reducing competition among seedlings and the parent plant. When seeds are dispersed to new locations, they have a higher chance of finding suitable conditions for germination and growth, such as appropriate soil, light, and moisture levels. Additionally, dispersing seeds can help plants colonize new areas and expand their habitat range, which is particularly beneficial in changing environments or when resources are limited. This increased distribution can also enhance genetic diversity by mixing seeds from different parent plants, leading to healthier and more resilient plant populations.
