oysterbrain약 13년I think that nature is so “smart” because it uses an incredible way to make living things continue to reproduce.- horse약 13년3 things I learned are that the plant's seeds are spicy and the fruit is yummy and the seeds are not, and that the fruits resemble blackberries.
- Sean약 13년Cool! plants use fruit that they make for animals to disperse thier seeds. When an animal bites into the seeds its like a hot mustard napalm(fire bomb). The animals spit out the seeds because it tastes gross and if they don't it comes out in the POOP because it's indigestible.

Last of all I learned that scientists call the seeds mustard bombs because once a mouse bites it, it releases an enzyme forcing the mouse to spit the seeds out.

- Kelly약 13년I first learned that Sweet Mignonette produces a little fruit that's like a blackberry. I also learned that the seeds in a "blackberry" scientist call "mustard bombs". Last but not least I learned that these are called "mustard bombs" because when a mouse bites into one, it releases a enzyme that taste a lot like hot mustard. That's what I learned.
