Scope for Evolution.

Breed new variety of species.

Answer 2

Self pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther to stigma of the same flower.

Advantages of self pollination :

$\bigstar$ Less wastage of pollen grains.

$\bigstar$ In self pollination purity of the race is maintained.

$\bigstar$ Less chances of failure of pollination.

$\bigstar$ New species and varieties of plants are not produced.

Cross pollination is the transfer of pollen grains from the anther of one flower to the stigma in a flower of anther plant of same type.
