Question

Winged seeds are

• A. Smooth and sticky
• B. Dry and spinous
• C. Rough and sticky
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

None of the above

Seed dispersal is a method by which plants transport their seeds away from the parent plant. Since, plants are limited in mobility they rely on various methods for seed dispersal. There are five main modes of seed dispersal which includes gravity, wind, ballistic, water, and animals. Some seeds are adapted to help seed dispersal. Since, winged seeds fly off to distant regions on their own with the help of winds and their wings, these are neither rough and sticky, dry and spinous, smooth and sticky.

Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
