In order for plants to reproduce, they have to spread their seeds to other areas. Plants have developed all kinds of ways to do this. The simplest way is gravity. Many seeds are inside of fruit. When a piece of fruit gets too heavy, it falls from a tree to the ground.

In this sentence--many seeds are inside of fruit, I think the preposition “of” is redundant and should be crossed out.
