Pressurized seeds and spores are beneficial adaptations for plants and fungi because they are able to disperse over greater distances. The pressure buildup inside the seed or spore allows them to be expelled forcefully, increasing the likelihood of reaching a suitable environment for germination and growth. This increased dispersal ability increases the chances of successful reproduction and colonization in new areas, which is important for the survival and expansion of these organisms. Additionally, pressurized seeds and spores are more resistant to external stressors such as drying out or being eaten by predators, further enhancing their chances of successful reproduction.
