Solution

The correct option is A

True


Some plants produce seeds that are covered in hooks or spines. These seeds get attached to animals fur or feathers. They are carried upto a certain distance away from their parent plant. Later, these seeds may either fall off, or are rubbed off by the animal. In this way the seeds are dispersed to a new surrounding where they germinate.
