Seed Dispersal in Plants

Today, you will collect information from a variety of sources about how angiosperms are adapted to spread their seeds far and wide, so that their offspring will "go grow up somewhere else."

First, check the "Print Your Own Links" spreadsheet and make sure that you have a copy of each of the notes documents for plants.  You also need a copy of the geologic time line for plants, which is not something we have talked about in class yet.  Look at how each page of notes includes some pictures and some text and some diagrams.  Today you will make your own page of notes, collecting images and arranging them in the way that makes the most sense to you.

Here are some websites to get you started:
