A
the transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma
B
the union of sperm (in the pollen tube) and egg cells in the ovary
C
the dispersal of seeds to a new location
D
the use of pollinators, such as bees, to transfer pollen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -“Fertilization in humans refers to the fusion of male and female gametes that facilitates the development of a new organism.” Fertilization is the natural life process, which is carried out by the fusion of both male and female gametes, which results in the formation of a zygote.

Detailed explanation-2: -Human fertilization is the union of a human egg and sperm, occurring primarily in the ampulla of the fallopian tube. The result of this union leads to the production of a fertilized egg called a zygote, initiating embryonic development.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fertilization is the union of the pollen cell with the ovule. A pollen grain forms two sperm as it reaches the ovule. One sperm unites with the ovule to form an embryo; the other sperm forms tissue known as endosperm in the seed.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fertilization is the union of a sperm and egg, resulting in the formation of a zygote. The zygote undergoes many cell divisions before it implants in the lining of the uterus.

Detailed explanation-5: -* Fertilisation is the process of fusion of the nucleus of the sperm with that of the egg cell and the egg so formed is called a fertilised egg.
