Mr. Turner: Plants cannot walk, but their seeds can still travel. Here are three ways that seeds move.

Mr. Turner: Some seeds are very light. A dandelion seed has soft, fluffy hairs, so the wind can carry it far away.

Mr. Turner: Some seeds have tiny hooks. When a dog runs through the grass, these seeds stick to its fur. Later, they fall off in a new spot.

Mr. Turner: Other seeds are inside fruit, like berries. A bird eats the berries and flies away. Later, the seeds come out of the bird in a new place.

Mr. Turner: If every seed fell under its plant, the new plants would be crowded. A new place gives them more room to grow.
