Data would support your hypothesis
Ans.
<em>Viscum album </em>is a plant species, commonly known as mistletoe. It is a hemi-parasitic plant that grows on other trees.
Birds cause seed dispersal as they pick seeds from parent plant and drop them in other places. Seeds of mistletoe are sticky or viscous due to mucus and they provide nutritious food to the birds.
Hence, it can be concluded that the mistletoe seeds show adaptations primarily for seed dispersion, not for infecting the host plant.
Thus, the correct answer to be filled in the blank is 'is nutritious to the dispersing birds.'
