I/you/he/she allow us to take as examples a solo small set of examples, family to
each, but far commoner in the world to great that the inhabitants
of city is to entirely aware of: I mean, the winged seeds, that fly around
freely in the air from he/she wants to say of feathered hair or thin gauze, as
thistle-feather and tooth of lion. Of these winged types we have many one hundred
variety in England alone. All the willow-grasses, have for example

fleabanes, cat's-ear, tooth of lion and lettuces. Indeed, one can say

economy of nature that doesn't intentionally provide, in a way or
another, for the dispersion and dissemination of their fruits or
young plant.

berries allow to fall above quietly to the ground under, and there it move for
them as best they is able on them own resources?
