What is the purpuse of fluff on cotton seeds

1 answer

The purpose of the fluffy fibers (fluff) on cotton seeds is to help the seeds disperse and be carried by the wind. This allows the seeds to be distributed over a wider area, increasing the chances of successful germination and growth of new cotton plants. Additionally, the fluffy fibers can also provide insulation and protection for the seeds, helping them survive harsh weather conditions and predators.
