Unit 1 Chapter 4 Review

Front

What is the primary method of dispersal for Burclover seeds?

Back

The most common way a Burclover seed gets dispersed is when it gets caught on an animal's fur and eventually falls off.

Front

What object can be used to model a Burclover seed?

Back

A fuzzy fake fur can be used to model a Burclover seed.

Front

What scientific tool is used to measure distance?

Back

A ruler is the scientific tool used to measure distance.

Front

Why do scientists conduct multiple tests during an investigation?

Back

Scientists test something more than once because the results are not always the same.

Front

What role does animal fur play in the dispersal of Burclover seeds?

Back

Animal fur helps in the dispersal of Burclover seeds by catching them, allowing the seeds to travel to new locations.

Front

What is the significance of seed dispersal in plants?

Back

Seed dispersal is significant for plants as it helps in spreading their offspring, reducing competition, and increasing the chances of survival.

Front

What are some common methods of seed dispersal in plants?

Back

Common methods of seed dispersal include wind, water, animals, and mechanical means.

Front

How does the structure of a Burclover seed aid in its dispersal?

Back

The structure of a Burclover seed, which may have hooks or barbs, allows it to attach to animal fur for effective dispersal.

Front

What is the ecological importance of Burclover?

Back

Burclover is important ecologically as it provides food for animals and helps in soil stabilization.

Front

What factors can affect the success of seed dispersal?

Back

Factors affecting seed dispersal success include the method of dispersal, environmental conditions, and the presence of suitable habitats.
