The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks why the water dispersal of coconut is not efficient. We need to analyze the options provided to determine the correct answer. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - **Option A**: "It is restricted day" - This option is unclear and does not provide relevant information about coconut dispersal. - **Option B**: "Coconut fruit decays within a couple of days" - While coconuts can decay, this does not directly relate to the efficiency of water dispersal. - **Option C**: "The fruit cannot remain afloat for then one day" - This statement is incorrect; coconuts can float for extended periods, allowing them to travel long distances in water. - **Option D**: "The statement is incorrect" - This option suggests that the premise of the question (that water dispersal of coconut is not efficient) is false. 3. **Evaluating the Efficiency of Water Dispersal**: Coconuts have adaptations that allow them to float on water, which aids in their dispersal. They can travel across oceans and germinate on distant shores, indicating that their water dispersal is indeed efficient. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Option D**: "The statement is incorrect." This means that water dispersal of coconut is efficient, contrary to what the question suggests. **Final Answer**: The correct answer is Option D: The statement is incorrect. ---
