Solution
The correct option is D Mango
Animals can disperse seeds by excreting or burying them. Fruits like mangos are loved by both squirrels and humans. Squirrels burry the fruit/seed in the ground, away from the parent plant and forget them. The seed later germinates to grow into a huge mango tree. Humans also play a role as dispersers by moving fruits to new places and discarding the inedible portions containing the seeds.
