Solution

The correct option is C Wind
The seeds and the fruits which can be dispersed by the help of wind have structures which allow them to float in the air. This method is known as anemochory. Generally, these seeds have wing, feathers or pappus-like structures which make them lighter and they ca be carried away with the wind. The seeds of poppy are dispersed by wind from the top opening of the fruit.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
