DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants produce nectar to attract pollinators. As the pollinator moves from flower to flower collecting nectar, they are also moving pollen from flower to flower. Certain fruits and seeds will not be produced if their flowers are not pollinated.

Detailed explanation-2: -The petals of a flower give it its unique shape, color, and smell. It’s their job to attract pollinators, like insects and hummingbirds, to the flower.

Detailed explanation-3: -A pollinator detects a flower’s scent and follows the concentration gradient of the chemical producing the scent to the flower. Plant species pollinated by bees and flies have sweet scents and those pollinated by beetles have strong musty, spicy, or fruity odors.
