Question

Describe three differences between a wind
Pollinated flower and insect - pollinated flower?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Wind pollinated flowers have light coloured petals and do not have a pleasant smell. Insect pollinated flowers have bright coloured petals, and they have a pleasant smell. ... These flowers have a feathery stigma with petals hanging out. These flowers have a small stigma and are found inside the petals.

Answer 2

Pollination is a natural process in which pollen grains are transmitted from the anther (male reproductive part) of a flower to the stigma (female reproductive part). Within the blooms, between flowers of the same plant, or between flowers of other species, the procedure might take place.

Explanation:

Insect pollination

• To attract insects, these blooms are big and have brightly coloured petals.
• Because nectar is present, these blooms have a sweet scent and a pleasant fragrance.
• These blooms have petite and compact stigmas.
• Stamens are not pendulous and are found in the interior of the flower. As the pollens brush against the anthers, this helps them stick to the agent.

Wind pollination

• These blooms are petite and lacklustre, and they appear bland. They are likewise devoid of any scent.
• They feature lengthy anthers that protrude from the bloom, allowing pollen grains to readily blow away.
• These blooms have the ability to produce a big amount of pollen.
• Because the pollen grains in these blooms are light, they are easier to transport.
