Examining a dandelion seed head
The young observer crouches on the left and holds the magnifying glass near her face. A tall dandelion seed head stands in the center on a long stem, while a tuft of grass and a small bud appear nearby. The scene focuses on the moment she studies the plant’s delicate seed structure at close range.
Intriguing facts about dandelion seeds
Each pale tuft is attached to a single fruit containing a seed, and its parachute-like shape helps the wind carry it away. Air can flow through the fine hairs in a way that creates lift, allowing some seeds to remain airborne longer than their tiny size might suggest.
