HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -Self-Pollination: A pollination where the pollen transfer takes place between the anther and stigma of the same flower. Cross-Pollination: A pollination where the pollen transfer takes place between the anther and the stigma of different flowers of the same plant or different plants of the same species.

Detailed explanation-2: -In plants there are two modes of reproduction, asexual and sexual. There are several methods of asexual reproduction such as fragmentation, budding, spore formation and vegetative propagation. Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Flowers reproduce by the process of pollination. The pollen grains are transferred from the anther of the male flower to the stigma of the female flower, enabling fertilization resulting in the production of seeds.

Detailed explanation-4: -In sexual reproduction, a fusion of male and female gametes produces fruits that contain seeds. The seeds give rise to new plants. A flower is the reproductive part of a plant which can either be unisexual or bisexual. Stamen is the male reproductive part and the pistil is the female reproductive part of a flower.
