Question

In John Steinbeck’s “The Turtle,” how does the turtle plant the wild oat seeds?

Answer 1

The wild oat seeds were stuck to the turtle's front legs, so when it was rolled off the road, the seeds fell off and onto the ground. The turtle then started moving, and while it was doing that, it covered the seeds with ground, and thus it planted them. One day, those seeds would grow into wild oats thanks to the turtle.
