  1. jumping seed

    Jumping seed is a common term used to describe any type of seed that exhibits an ability to disperse itself away from the parent plant through a mechanical action, making it seem as though they "jump". This type of movement can occur through a variety of mechanisms, such as when the fruit dries out and contracts, forcing the seed out with a sudden burst of energy. This characteristic helps in the distribution and propagation of the plant species.
