Answer:

only philip

Explanation:

Dear student,

In the above statements, only Philip is correct - Fertilization in flower cannot occur without pollination.

Pollination is the process in which pollen from the stamens is transferred to the stigma of same of a different flower. Pollination leads to the fusion of male and female gamete inside the ovary. This fusion process is called fertilization. So, pollination is responsible for the fertilization.

Rest of the statements are incorrect.
