Solution

The correct option is B Hair and wings
Seeds which are having “propeller wing” design helps keep them in the air longer when they fall from the tree, giving the wind more time to carry them away. Seeds with hair-‐like and wing-like structures are adapted for dispersal by wind. Plants that grow near water often rely on moving water to disperse their seeds.
So the correct answer is 'Hair and wings'.
