A seed dispersal method is a way for the seeds of a plant to distance itself from the parent. Due to a plant's lack of motility, they must rely on the movement patterns of other organisms and factors in their ecosystem, such as the wind, water, and animals. Often, popular plants such as the willow tree as shown here host a number of small creatures such as ants, aphids, butterfly larvae and wasps, who will travel along with the seeds of the tree for dispersal.
