What is a diffusion of a fern?

Diffusion in the context of ferns refers to the process by which spores are dispersed from the parent plant to new locations for germination and growth. Ferns reproduce via spores, which are typically produced in structures called sporangia located on the undersides of their fronds. When conditions are favorable, these spores are released into the air, where they can be carried by wind or water to suitable habitats, facilitating the spread of the fern species. This method of reproduction allows ferns to colonize new areas and maintain genetic diversity.
