Question
You notice tiny green plants growing in cracks on your school wall after the monsoon. Where do you think the seeds came from? What conditions helped these plants grow there?
Show answer
Answer
Seeds were dropped by birds or carried by wind, and rain helped them grow.
Explanation
- Birds eat fruits and drop seeds far from the parent plant.
- Wind can also carry small seeds onto the wall.
- The monsoon rain gave the seeds water to grow.
- So with water, air and sunlight, the seeds sprouted in the cracks.
Seeds spread by birds or wind grew with rain and sunlight.
