Correct Answer: throw


Solution : The second option is correct.

Explanation : In the context of planting seeds, the verb that best fits is throw . Planting a seed involves placing it into the ground, and throwing in this context suggests a simple, casual action of placing the seed into fertile ground. The other options ( pick , pull , and peel ) do not convey the appropriate action for planting a seed in this context.
