ANSWER
SELF-POLLINATION
1) The process of transferring the pollen grains from the anther to the stigma of the same flower or the stigma of a flower on the same plant is called self-pollination.
2) It occurs in genetically same plants.
3) No external pollinating agents are required.
4) Eg- Orchids.
CROSS-POLLINATION

2) It occurs in genetically different plants of the same species.
3) External pollinating agents are required for this type of pollination (water, wind, insects etc).
4) Eg- Papaya.
