Summary Introduction
To explain:
How the data in the given figure support Tewksbury and Nabhan’s hypothesis.
Concept introduction:
Flowering plants protect their seeds from the animals until the seeds are mature in order to germinate by producing certain chemicals. These chemicals repel the animals as they do not find the smell and the taste of the fruit appealing.
