Question
- what adaptation do seeds dispersed through ballistochory have?
sail - like structure
smooth and aerodynamic
pleasant smell and taste
hollow on the inside
Ballistochory is a form of seed dispersal where seeds are forcefully ejected from the parent plant. Seeds dispersed through ballistochory often have smooth and aerodynamic shapes that help them travel further when ejected. A sail - like structure is more associated with wind dispersal (anemochory). A pleasant smell and taste are adaptations for animal dispersal (zoochory). Being hollow on the inside is not a typical adaptation for ballistochory.
