Have you ever seen a large tree growing by itself in an empty field and wondered how did it get there? Its seed was transported there by a process called seed dispersal! Use this lesson to explore the different ways seeds are dispersed in nature. Then put your new knowledge to work in a design challenge to construct a model of a seed and describe how it would be dispersed from a plant.
