Detailed explanation-1: -Honey bees, the most important crop pollinator, pollinate over 100 different fruits and vegetables, while bumble bees, which vibrate as they pollinate, are more efficient pollinators for plants such as tomatoes (Berenbaum 2007).

Detailed explanation-2: -Bees. Bees are the most important pollinator. Honeybees, for example, are responsible for pollinating over 110 crops that we eat and use every day, like tasty apples and delicious strawberries.

Detailed explanation-3: -Of all the insect pollinators, bees are the only ones that collect pollen for eating. As such, bees are responsible for 90 percent of all the world’s pollination.

Detailed explanation-4: -Because they gather pollen to stock their nests, bees are generally the most effective pollinators since they visit many more flowers and carry more pollen between them. Some bee species are also specially developed to pollinate particular plants and without them those plants would be less well-pollinated.

Detailed explanation-5: -When such insects move from one to another flower of the same species, pollen gets transferred to the stigma of flowers thereby causing pollination. The insects which visit and cause pollination are bees, moths, butterflies, wasps, drones, etc.
