A
Pollination
B
Fertilization
C
Germination
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Pollination : The mechanism of transferring pollen grains from anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower of the same or different plant is called pollination. The pollen grains can be transferred to the stigma of the flower through wind, water and insects called pollinating agents.

Detailed explanation-2: -Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the male part of the flower (anther) to the female part of the flower (stigma) of the same kind or species. After pollination, fertilization takes place which results in formation of fruits and seeds.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pollen grains released by the anther are picked up by visiting insects or the wind. When a pollen grain reaches the female pistil (which may be on the same or a different flower), it germinates on the stigma, forming a pollen tube that grows through the style and into the ovary.
