Question

dandelion seeds are spread across the environment with the wind, having no pattern as to where they land and grow. what dispersal pattern is this an example of?

• random
• cyclic
• clumped
• uniform

Explanation:

In ecology, a random dispersal pattern means individuals (or in this case, dandelion seeds) are spread without a predictable pattern. The problem states dandelion seeds land and grow with no pattern, which matches the definition of random dispersal. Cyclic implies a repeating cycle, clumped is grouped together, and uniform is evenly spaced—none of these fit the "no pattern" description here.

Answer:

A. random
