Solution
The correct options are A C Some plants have pods that explode when ripe and shoot out the seeds. Pea and bean plants also keep their seeds in a pod. When the seeds are ripe and the pod has dried, the pod bursts open and the peas and beans are scattered. The seeds of balsam and lady's finger are dispersed in this manner. The dandelion seeds are dispersed by air and the seeds of blueberry are dispersed by animals or birds.
