Plants create soft, sweet fruits for animals to eat in order to disperse the seeds. Fruits are plant organs that dissolve their own cells to become desirable. Deciduous trees in Autumn form beautifully colored leaves. These leaves are acutally in the midst of dying, evacuating their own chemical resources to the roots (and therefore turning colors). Both of these processes are evolutionarily favorable, bringing advantages to the plant. But why is Death a necessary evil in this world we live in?
