The correct option is B Dispersal
When animals take fruits or seeds for food, they act as willing transporters of the plant's seeds. Sometimes, the plants make use of animals to carry their seeds. Many plants produce fruits or individual seeds covered in hooks or spines which attach the seed to the animals's fur or feathers - or, in the case of humans, to our clothes or bags. The seeds are then carried a sufficient distance from the parent plant to give them space to grow. Eventually, the seed may fall off, or be rubbed off by the animal.
