NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -They are neither colorful nor nectar producing as these are the characters for the insect-pollinated flowers. Insects get attracted towards the nectar and flower color but this does not occur in the case of wind and water. So, wind pollinated flowers do not produce nectar or essential oils/fragrance.

Detailed explanation-2: -These two agents are light in weight as the air and water cannot carry the heavy pollen. Insects get attracted towards the nectar and flower but here in the wind and the water it does not occur. So, this is the reason why wind pollinated and water pollinated flowers are not colorful and they cannot produce nectar.

Detailed explanation-3: -Anemophilous, or wind pollinated flowers, are usually small and inconspicuous, and do not possess a scent or produce nectar.

Detailed explanation-4: -By contrast, wind-pollinated flowers produce tiny grains of pollen that float on the breeze, with only a fraction of them happening to end up on any pistils. Because the odds of successful wind pollination are long, the plant produces an enormous amount of pollen.

Detailed explanation-5: -Wind pollinated plants have small, inconspicuous or dull petals-there is no need to attract insects with bright colours. Wind pollinated plants produce a lot of pollen to increase the chances of pollination. It is also very, very light in texture, so that it is easily blown on the wind currents.
