I would think a cherry tree uses several methods of seed dispersal. Floaters- the seeds can float away on water runoff during heavy rains. Hitchhiker- the fruit can fall onto an animal and be carried some distance before it falls to the ground. Tummy traveler-animals consume the fruit, seeds and all, and the seeds are excreeted.

Raspberries use animal-mediated seed dispersal. Birds and small mammals eat the juicy fruit, and the seeds pass through their digestive system before being deposited elsewhere, helping spread the seeds to new locations.
Animals eat the fallen cherries, pit and all. The next day they "plant" the cherry pit among the fragrant blossoms of honeysuckle and clover in a stinking pile of poo.
A cherry Tree will produce the delicious cherries that we all enjoy. the hard part we spit out is the seed.
Cherry fruits are eaten by birds and mammals, hence the seeds are dispersed by them.
who would know we are not geeks are we hahaha
Yes, Venus Fly Traps do use seed dispersal to multiply.
Parachute seed dispersal is a type of seed dispersal where seeds have structures like wings, hairs, or fibers that allow them to be carried by the wind over long distances. These structures help the seeds to be dispersed away from the parent plant so they can germinate in new areas and reduce competition for resources. Examples of plants that use parachute seed dispersal include dandelions and maple trees.
The spreading out of seeds from the parent plant is called seed dispersal. This process helps seeds reach new areas for germination and growth, increasing the plant's chances of survival and genetic diversity.
Thistle seeds use wind dispersal, with their small, feathery structures allowing them to be carried by the wind. Ash and maple seeds use a method called helicopter or autorotation dispersal, where their wing-like structures allow them to spin and glide through the air.
