I'm learning about plants in school, and I was wondering how seeds get dispersed.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Seeds are dispersed in many ways, such as by wind, water, or animals. For example, some plants produce seeds with parachutes that help them float away in the wind.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
That's cool. What about animals? How do they help disperse seeds?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Animals help disperse seeds by eating fruits or berries that contain seeds. The seeds then pass through the animal's digestive system and are deposited in a new location, often with a pile of fertilizer to help them grow.<|im_end|>

Oh, I see. So animals play a big role in spreading seeds around.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Yes, that's right. Many plants rely on animals to help spread their seeds and grow in new areas.<|im_end|>
