Solution

The correct option is B False
Seeds with fibrous outer covering filled with air spaces are generally dispersed by water. These air spaces help the seeds to float on water, e.g., coconut. On the other hand, seeds which are lightweight and have wings or hairy structures on them are usually dispersed by wind, maple, dandelion, etc., are some of the examples.
