Throughout the ages, plants have managed to create different mechanisms that allow them to disseminate their seeds. This makes it easier for new plants to grow further away from their parents. Funny how this is also reminiscent of humans, in a way, although it happens much earlier with plants. This is important for the expansion of the range of the species. This is also why seeds are crucial for our planet and the survival of a large number of plants. Plants need to take advantage of many habitat opportunities, and by dispersing seeds further away, they can do just that. There are many disturbances in nature, including some ecological processes, which is why plants need to search for new habitats continually. Seeds are used for this. Of course, they also allow us humans to plant them anywhere we want and grow whichever plant we need to survive. Some plant species are of vital importance to us; we need them as a source of food. However, there are also seeds of plants we need for raw materials. These materials can be used for manufacturing industrial chemicals, for example. It should be noted that not all plants produce seeds. However, all plants that do produce them use them to replicate themselves. The importance of seeds is biological and economic. They have large amounts of protein, starch, and oil, which are all important nutrients for the development of plants and humans. They are used in the production of many primary food sources for humans. They are considered to be extremely important for our welfare, mostly because of food purposes, but as previously mentioned, there are other important functions they have as well.
