Question

How are cone bearing trees and static electricity connected

Answer 1

Answer: Static electricity will help in seed dispersal in cone bearing seeds.

Explanation:

Static electricity is the stationary electric charge produced by the friction. The static electricity can be produced by the turbulence or air currents in the storm clouds. This is responsible for the cause of lightening phenomena.

The cone bearing seeds exhibit cones that are hard and woody in nature.  The static electricity due to the effect of lightening generate electrical shock which breaks open the cone and disperse the seeds. Thus the static electricity is important for seed dispersal in cone bearing trees.
