Detailed explanation-1: -Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma.

Detailed explanation-2: -At flower maturity, when pollination takes place, the pistil is fully developed and composed of stigma, style, and ovary. Whether the pollen is transported by the wind or by animal pollinators, after landing on the stigma the pollen grain hydrates and germinates a tube.

Detailed explanation-3: -The transfer of the pollen grain from the anther of a flower to the stigma of the same flower in the same plant or to the different plant which is genetically similar is called self pollination.

Detailed explanation-4: -Autogamy. It is a type of self-pollination where the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to the stigma takes place within the same flower.
