Question

Discuss how the production and dispersal of seeds by plants may represent a mutualism between two species. Use atleast 200 words..

Answer 1

Mutualism is relationship between any two organism in which both organism gets benefit from each other due to thier interaction.

Pollination for Seed production/ seed dispersal by bees and birds are mutualistic interaction respectively.

Honeybees collect the pollen from 1 flower and pollinated to another pollen while moving from 1 flower to another flower thus helps in pollination, in return they get nectar as food from the flowers

Birds eat fruits from the trees and releases the seed in thier fecal matter once digested after flying far away. Thereby it gets food and disperse the seed which is mutualism
