Summary Introduction

To determine:

The reason behind making so many acorns by the oak tree.

Introduction:

The acorns are the fruit of the oak tree. It is an oval nut, and its outer part is shaped like a cup. The fruit is formed from the ovary which consists of one or more seeds. If the fruit develops from a flower with one ovary and contains only one seed, it is called simple fruit. If the fruit develops from one flower containing many carpels, it is called an aggregate fruit.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The reason behind having better reproductive success in dispersing the seeds far from the parent as compared to the one whose seeds fall at the base of the parent plant.

Introduction:

The seed dispersal is considered as the important function of fruits. The seeds are dispersed by animals, wind, and water. The wind dispersed fruits have wings or other structures that catch the air currents. The water dispersed fruits may drift across the water bodies before colonizing distant lands. The animal dispersed fruits are vibrant colored and they also have spines which help them to get attached to animals.
