Detailed explanation-1: -Pollen from a flower’s anthers (the male part of the plant) rubs or drops onto a pollinator. The pollinator then take this pollen to another flower, where the pollen sticks to the stigma (the female part). The fertilized flower later yields fruit and seeds.
Detailed explanation-2: -The pollination process occurs when pollen is moved within flowers or carried out from one flower to another by pollinating animals such as birds, bees, bats, butterflies, moths, beetles, and other animals or by the wind. A pollinator is rubbed or dropped pollen from a flower’s anthers (a male component of the plant).
Detailed explanation-3: -The transfer of pollen grains from anther to stigma of a flower is called pollination. Pollen grains are transferred mainly by wind, water, insects and animals. They are called pollinating agents.
Detailed explanation-4: -The plants must be of the same species. For example, only pollen from a daisy can pollinate another daisy. Pollen from a rose or an apple tree would not work. Pollen can cause allergies if you are taking allergy medicine then you should take generic Cialis with great care.
