Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Joints are the part of the body that helps in movement. They are formed by the articulation of the surfaces of two or more bones. Joints are differentiated based on their movement; some joints are freely movable such as synovial joint due to the presence of synovial fluid, whereas, others are immovable such as suture due to synostosis.

You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different.
